Message: [QUOTE="Dogdeacon, post: 4668602, member: 1026"] That speaks to the oddity of preseason rankings. Up until first games the rankings are the projection of where everyone thinks teams will be at END of season. Once games start it immediately shifts to snapshot of where they are right NOW. So I think you are right, UConn might not be top 10 immediately and is likely to have some ups and downs. As champs returning a decent # of contributors, the 23-24 Huskies have more ballast (internal & external perception) to start high and stay in top-25. The floor & ceiling depends on the newcomers. Europe trip will be telling and is HUGE for recreating cohesion, comes at exact right time following the 3 NBA exits. Hopefully we are saying WOW about a couple of the newcomers and no limits on what team can be ranked or achieve. [/QUOTE]
