The last time we have to do this! Where do people have UConn and the rest of the American pre-season. Here are my rankings:
1. Memphis
2. Houston
3. Cincinnati
4. USF
5. UConn
6. Witchia
7. Temple
8. Tulsa
9. SMU
10. UCF
11. ECU
12. Tulane
I think 1-3 could go in any order. Maybe 4-7 as well.
But when I look at the teams in front of us and around us...they all have major question marks. Memphis has a ton of pressure on them, and they are so young. Do they have an upperclassmen even on the roster? Houston should be good but lost a TON. Cincinnati has the best player in the league, but a whole system/coach and I think their front court is very thin.
USF will be good, but I still don't know if they have enough skill players. Witchia lost their 2 best players, and then lost what would have been a starter when Allen got kicked off the team. They also were the opposite of us last year in that they won a ton of close games.
My point is I think this league is wide open. Not suggesting we should be the favorite, but we have a chance to sneak up on people. Especially if Josh can dominate down low. This league doesn't have a lot of good bigs.
