No joke that’s way too early. No one has any idea yet who’s going to be on what team.

I've said this on the Checkerboard previously several times now the past couple of years, but I am SO over the cliche'd "way too early" polls. It's just more lazy make-work stuff for sportswriters. Even if we had a clue what the makeup of all the teams was going to be at this point, this stuff would still be pointless other than to get clicks. I refuse to participate in it, LOL. |

that is our highest finish ever. Yeah, I read that on 247 just a few minutes ago. I'm kind of surprised, not because I would have normally thought we had finished higher than that nationally in the past. After all, we've never been a 1 seed. But with multiple teams under Pearl and Barnes being ranked higher than that during the season a few times, I guess I would have thought we had one finish higher. But then we probably would have had we not laid an egg in the Tourney in those years. |

that is our highest finish ever. I thought it probably would be our highest finish. Didn't think we had ever been ranked fifth when the season ended, and then go to the elite eight, and played a really good Purdue team and three refs a helluva game. Although I am a little aggravated that Alabama finished ahead of us, after we beat them twice and won the SEC regular season. |

In my heart I believe we were the 4th best team this year after UConn, Purdue, and Houston. |

I believe Houston would have been in the championship game had Shead not gotten hurt. |

Top 10 seems high without another Knect-like transfer. |
