UConn will be one of the top 3 teams in the country. I have no idea who the other two will be. We’ll figure that out over the summer, and we usually get it right.

On paper, we look unbeatable. But games are not played on paper. SC loses 4/5 of their starters to graduation this year. I don’t expect them to see a #1 ranking at anytime next year. LSU should be in the top 5 in next year’s preseason poll. Stanford, Notre Dame, Ohio St, Texas and Iowa could also, be there. Duke might even make a surprising appearance.

We don’t know who will be transferring over the summer. We don’t know who will win the portal parade. I expect SC to get their share of unhappy players wanting to transfer.

All I’m suggesting is that UConn should be a preseason top-three team. I’ll be able to be more definitive in August. It’s too early to say they should be #1, so I’ll leave it there. BTW, I do like your analysis and your forecast for next year’s team.
