This is the 7th week I've done this. Some notes:

Arizona, Kentucky, Maryland, Memphis & Syracuse have never been eligible.
Indiana hasn't been eligible the last 5 weeks.
UNC hasn't been eligible the last 4 weeks.
This is Duke and MSU's first week not eligible.
25 teams have been eligible all 7 weeks.
17 teams have been in the Top 25 all 7 weeks.

17 teams have been in the Top 25 all 7 weeks.

Here's how those 17 teams rank if you go by their average ranking each week.

1. Gonzaga (2.0)
2. Baylor (3.8)
3. Villanova (5.9)
4. Houston (7.0)
5. Iowa (8.0)
6. Texas (9.3)
7. Michigan (9.9)
8. Tennessee (10.2)
9. Kansas (11.5)
10. Wisconsin (12.3)
11. Illinois (12.8)
12. West Virginia (13.1)
13. Creighton (14.6)
14. Texas Tech (16.0)
15. Virginia (16.6)
16. Ohio State (19.5)
17. Missouri (22.0)

So Virginia, Michigan, Ohio State & Missouri are on the up and up.
Tennessee, Creighton, Kansas & Wisconsin are dropping.

This is Tennessee's first week outside of the Top 10.

Gonzaga, Baylor, Villanova, Houston, Iowa & Texas have been in the Top 10 all 7 weeks.
Only Gonzaga and Baylor have been in the Top 5 every week. Villanova and Houston each had one week where they weren't.
Gonzaga has been #1 every week. Baylor has been #2 every week except for 1 when they were #3.

Alabama was not eligible the first three weeks. Since then they've gone: 33rd, 23rd, 18th, 8th.

Last one: Virginia Tech & Xavier have been eligible all 7 weeks, but have never cracked the Top 25.
