Way-Too-Early Top 25

[Conquistador]

Not even a mention for UConn.

Villanova, no returning talent, but because the have Jay Wright they were ranked. Lol

Arkansas is No. 1 in Way-Too-Early Top 25 college basketball rankings for 2022-23

Arkansas hasn't won a national title or reached a Final Four in 25-plus years. The Razorbacks are ESPN's early favorite to win the 2023 national championship.

In all fairness, as of this moment we don't have a point guard. If we don't get a decent one in the portal we probably won't be ranked during the season either.

 

[CTBasketball]

We have literally zero true PGs and you’re over here worried about an ESPN article.

Take a lap.

We shouldn’t be ranked yet. We have huge question marks in our back court and will be relying on freshman in other areas

 

[6xChamps]

I think Hurley will massage this group into being top 25 caliber by the start of the season but there’s no reason we should be ranked there right now

Why would there be??

The top 25 threads should be dumped as bad mojo

You don't typically get a lot of hype when you lose first round to a 12 seed and don't have a monster team coming back or have a couple McD's all-Americans coming in. Not having a point guard on the roster currently doesn't help with hype either.

If this makes you feel better. UConn at 23

Not cool, don’t ruin his fun.

Villanova's potential returning or new players:
#20 Cam Whitmore
#44 Mark Armstrong
#100 Brendan Hausen
#55 Jordan Longino
#98 Nnanna Njoku
#44 Trey Patterson
#17 Bryan Antoine
#57 Justin Moore
#71 Eric Dixon
#53 Brandon Slater

But sure, 10 9 top 100 guys is no talent.

They'll have a lot of talent like they always do but losing Justin Moore is huge. Whitmore is a stud, one of the absolute best talents in the class but filling Gillespie's shoes will he tough, wonder if Brizzi will be ready to run point.

 

[Omaha-Jays]

I am very excited about the squad we have coming back, but Top 10 feels crazy at this point.

I am hoping our high expectations can help us land a transfer like Will Richard and a backup post like Fredrick King. We are a quality guard and a backup big away from a really special team.

Your core 4 is as good as it gets, it's all about bringing in the pieces around them as you pointed out.

It helps to have a plus- coach

16 here.

In the era of the portal and infinite eligibility, these are impossible to do. I know it's harmless speculation, but when basically every D-1 player has to be re-recruited every off-season, you're better off just keeping a log of every potential returnee from noteworthy teams and highlighting them once they're confirmed back. These ranking are going to be determined in real-time over the next month or so.

(For example, if UConn signs Posh Alexander, they probably jump into at least the top 25)

i thought kids couldnt change schools within conference?

 

[Huskyforlife]

Rothstein has us 24th and Corey projected starting pg.

Most conferences have removed that rule.

 

[mauconnfan]

Our guys for now have zero reason to be in the Top 25. Is what it is, see what the staff gets done or get used to rebuilding.

Why would we be ranked? Nova just came off a final four and they have Wright. Of course they’d be ranked
