Interesting that he sees Xavier as the 4 best team in the Big East, ranked them in 25-30 range. Creighton 5, Nova 16, UConn 24 and then Xavier. If Justin Lewis comes back I like Marquette in the 4th spot. I guess we will find out tomorrow if he returns or stays in the NBA draft,

I don't agree with his rankings, but this guy (cited by 247) has us at 53 post portal.


Sure hope Newton will be in double digits, and somehow we get more production out of the bigs beyond Adama.

That has to be an error. It's probably meant to be 17.6, which is 0.1 less than he averaged last season. His worst season he averaged over 8 points, and suddenly coming off a 1st team All-AAC he's going to regress by 10 PPG? No way

Also look at the teams in front of us. He has Creighton all the way down at 27 lol. Whatever his model is doing with the projections is wacked

It's more likely a quirk of his model than an error, per se. The system is inherently unpredictable in the best of times, and I can only assume the computer models are even less predictive when wrenches like transfer rule changes and extra eligibility are thrown into the gears.
