They're 20th, between Oklahoma and VCU. Isn't Insider something like $9 / month?

It's Jeff Goodman. Do we care?

Anyway, he has UConn at 20. I had to laugh at his comment on Purvis and Hamilton. Instead of his usual snide comments on these two he wrote something that could be a positive. Or a backhand compliment. I think he's tired of getting ridden by UConn fans on Twitter. And what else can he say since the Huskies just proved everything he's ever said wrong about them (including Ollie was a bad hire) 22 days ago? .

20. Connecticut Huskies

Gone: Shabazz Napier, DeAndre Daniels, Niels Giffey, Lasan Kromah, Tyler Olander

Returning: Ryan Boatright, Amida Brimah, Phillip Nolan, Terrence Samuel, Omar Calhoun, Kentan Facey

Coming in: SG-SF Daniel Hamilton (ESPN No. 30), SG Rodney Purvis (NC State transfer), G Sam Cassell, PF Rakim Lubin

Key Riser: Amida Brimah -- He is a raw big man who needs another year to learn the game and be effective on the offensive end of the floor. He's already a game-changer on the defensive side.

Analysis: The defending national champs will lose their all-everything guard in Napier, and will also lose Daniels, who stepped up down the stretch. Kevin Ollie will still have talent with Boatright, Brimah and the addition of Purvis and Hamilton -- two guys who love to score.

Summer Buzz: Ollie and his staff already have two verbal pledges from the Class of 2015: Georgia point guard Will Jackson and Florida wing Prince Ali. The Huskies are also trying for elite Mississippi guard Malik Newman, as well as big men Diamond Stone, Jessie Govan, Chance Comanche and John Sharma.

I think it's actually like $9 a year, not a month. I always wondered why people who actually care what's on there don't just pay the $9 and be done with it. Eat one less cheeseburger in the next year and you've paid for it.

I agree Scoop. You get the garbage magazine as well I believe but its 9 bucks. If you like baseball, Keith Law is really insightful and behind the paywall.

Sounds like a backhanded compliment. You can tell he really wants to write "everyone's a ballhog and they're going to have atrocious chemistry", but, like you suggested, he's sick of being proven wrong about UConn and doesn't want to stick his neck out again in an overt manner.

The damn cheeseburgers in Boston are expensive.

Indeed. "2nd best team in new england wins national title" just doesn't sit well.
