Boy is this field attractive.
Syracuse, UConn, Michigan, Gonzaga, Texas, Washington, Texas A&M and Charlotte make up the field.
No matter how much talent they return next year, the youth alone is impressive.
2 recruiting classes in the top 4 (Texas A&M - 3, Syracuse - 4)
4 recruiting classes in the top 20 (Washington - 11, UConn - 17)
5 recruiting classes in the top 21 (Texas - 21)
That's with out mentioning that Syracuse is likely returning all but Christmas (McCullough too if he can be more consistent), UConn is likely returning all but Boatright, Michigan may only lose 1 (but up to 3), Gonzaga may only be losing Pangos and Bell Jr., Texas is only looking to lose Holmes, Washington is bringing in 6 recruits (and only losing their top scorer) and Texas A&M may only be losing 20 MPG, while bringing in four 4 stars.
This tournament next year, if everything goes how it looks now, is going to be stacked. It could very well have 5 ranked teams, with 2 more borderline top 25 major teams.
