Finally got a point guard. It's been way too long.

True that. He’s like TJ McConnell on steroids. 6’3 ginger kid that can throw down between the legs dunks and shoot lights out? It’s a dream. Plus Josh Green just won a national title at IMG Academy.

There it is, the too early Top 25 from ESPN..

Loaded Michigan State leads Way-Too-Early Top 25 for 2019-20

LMAO @mr.hockey4242

Marquette at #2!!!

That's a pretty awful top 25 imo

Lmao and Nova 5 with SHu just outside the top 10.

2 is very bold.

We should be extremely dangerous if Markus returns and plays off the ball. But top 2 to start the year...no.

I’m thinking more like 8ish.

Alright, no excuses. Next year needs to be a big one.

If anything, the teams in the Final 4 this year showed us that how the last year ended doesn't mean squat...

Agreed and I think we are very similar to Tennessee this year.

They were a 3 seed and also one a tourney game before entering this year bonfided top 10, but I think we have more upside if things really click but less of a sure bet.

First bravketolgy for next year cane out a few days ago. Pretty interesting . 2 Big 10 teams as 1 seeds, UNC as a 2 ( thought that was high ) , 2 BE teams with 3 seeds or better , a B10 team with a 3 but Purdue at a 4 w/o Edwards seems way too high , Duke on the 1 line seems high to me too

 

[The Derski]

Me thinks if Markus had broken the Marquette scoring record he goes pro. But he’s what, like 7 points shy of it? Lol maybe I’m just cynical.

Unc was really high.

BE will be really good next year. I’m actually surprised Marquette and Nova are only 3 seeds.

I don’t see the best BE team(whoever it is this year) not being a top 2 seed.

This years youthful mediocrity sets up perfectly for next year

Agreed. I though Marquette would be a 2 ( maybe a 1 ).

Man the day I saw us as a 1 what a treat.

 

[UVA_Guy81]

They lose Salt too. It's just a lot. Top 5 I can see, but #1 is a stretch in my mind.

Salt was solid at playing defense but he was usually not that big of a factor on offense. I think we'll plug in either Huff and/or Diakite and be fine.

Think UVA loses Hunter and Jerome. Tennessee loses Williams. Anybody else who even is expected to sniff the first round is gone.

Class of 2019 top recruits have chosen non-traditional powers which will also create a lot more parity.

I'm not sold on Jerome leaving. I think he'll come back for his senior year to try to improve his draft stock since from what I've seen, he's a late first-early 2nd rounder. I'd definitely be shocked to see Hunter back though.

I'm going to be interested in seeing how Morsell and Shedrick factor in next season or if Bennett will redshirt them.

I don't think his stock would go up any higher seeing as how he was the most important player (and you could argue best) for the team all year for a team that won the championship.

I actually think he's a better college player than Hunter.

If he comes back, he could get hurt.

I would say he's probably gone.

I'm not high on FSU next season, especially with Kabengele declaring.

You can take UVa out of the top 5.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Well,

The Markus news was fun while it lasted.

Sounds like the Hausers are gone.

 

[naslundfan19]

Take Gonzaga out of consideration. Rui has declared like expected and he should.

Crushing blow. I was upset as well.

Going to set the program and conference back some.

Like you guys give a shit what happens next year...
