Preseason Top 25

The AP Poll just came out.


NCAA College Basketball Polls, College Basketball Rankings, NCAA Basketball Polls - ESPN

Terps claim the #25 spot. Feck yea! I was sure we wouldn't make the AP.

The sportswriters like them more than the coaches. They didn't receive a vote in the Coaches Poll.

Shit, I must have missed that. I thought they only had Melo Trimble back.

@Bulletz Didn't know if you knew but Suillamon is playing for the Hornets D-League expansion team in Greensboro.

Pretty much. They have a lot of talent coming in, but nobody really know how it's gonna pan out. I definitely thought we'd be outside of both preseason top 25 rankings.

I did not. Thanks man, I'm gonna keep tabs on him this year.

Off the top of my head I would take these guys over Koening:

Dennis Smith
Markelle Fultz
Lonzo Ball
De'Aron Fox
Edmond Sumner
Melo Trimble
Monte Morris
EC Matthews
Nigel Williams Goss

I also don't see him getting drafted. He's a good college basketball player, but he really doesn't have one skill that translates to the NBA level.

I don't know enough about most those guys since I just pay more focus on BIG play so I can't compare.

His handles and 3 point shot are easily NBA ready. Since he runs the swing offense it remains to be seen if he has the play making or finishing skills at the rim in the NBA.

My Tar Heels are #6, here's to a good season for them.
