Message: [QUOTE="Plebe, post: 4408792, member: 6927"] Not true at all. The tournament results are most assuredly the only reason Creighton is in the preseason top 25 at all. The same can be said for Princeton, despite the fact that Princeton lost its best player to transfer. Copy-pasting the tournament results from the previous season, aside from being a rather pointless mechanical exercise, would fail to take into account personnel changes between seasons. At least one Big East team seems to have benefited from a bit of voter amnesia. DePaul was included in several AP ballots (including PJ Brown of the [I]Arizona Daily Star[/I], who ranked them 14th). I'm not sure what their rationale was for including DePaul, but it certainly wasn't based on recent NCAA tournament performance. [/QUOTE]
