I love how the worst conference in college basketball has three teams ranked ahead of us… This wont last long SEC fans so take advantage now.

Some even think we don't belong...

While I can agree on some points, I definitely think we belong in the top 25 pre-season. I’m also very hopeful we can end in the top 10 by that last poll.

I heard DeCoursey interviewed just now

and he said the same thing as he did in the article. He said we have guys who have been there, but haven’t done that. Obviously talking about Sosa and Jerry. And he said he wasn’t sold on the replacements for T-Will and Earl. I see his points, don’t agree because I’m a homer, but I see them. He doesn’t think we are better than Georgetown.
As an aside, he’s really high on Cincy, especially Lance Stephenson.

Funny how he talks about how these guys have been there, but are unproven. And somehow teams loaded with unproven freshmen and unproven veterans get high rankings. That makes sense. Winning in high school doesn’t necessarily translate to college. Hype, hype, hype! Prove it!
