Makes no sense. AU drops 12 spots without losing a player since his last ranking while some move up after 2-3 players. Oh well, John can suck my dick.

Nevermind, just read this again after 16 beers and realize it says ESPN.

John, will you forgive me?

ESPN, suck it you commie pieces of shit.

Carry on. Love y’all.

I'm very cautiously optimistic about this season. We return a more than usual and we actually have shooters, but we'res still bring in a lot and last year was so tough,

I notice updated list shows a few more PAC I understand these teams had some guys return it really does make sense, after what they did in the NCAA they warrant respect.

Auburn top SEC? I know the Auburn guys can set me straight here what do they have? They lost the PG right?

You got depth and hit a HR on the transfer market and have good FR coming in, some shooting. Returning some guys humbled is gonna help you too. If y'all suck again then Cal's gonna come under fire and he'd really deserve it UK probably has a wide ceiling/floor anywhere from T5 to T20 just can't see UK being bad again.

BRB gotta clean up the vomit...

Interestingly enough, the PAC won't be as good next year (as a whole) but will probably garner more national respect because of how foolish the PAC made the media look last March.

For the PAC, Oregon and UCLA should be very good. USC and Arizona should be tournament teams, borderline top 25 teams. The rest of the conference will be pretty mediocre.

We killed it in the transfer portal bringing in Walker Kessler, KD Johnson from UGA, Freshman AA PG Wendell Green, All CAA Guard Zep Jasper from College of Charleston etc to go along with Jabari Smith. Plus Allen Flanagan, Jaylin Williams, Devan Cambridge etc return.

While we did lose Cooper to the NBA, he really only played in about 18 games missing the first half and then the final games down the stretch. So while losing him sucks, we never really had enough of him to make a difference last year. Also, he was our only PG last year and now we have 3 in Green, Jasper, and KD Johnson meaning we are stronger in that area than last year.

Easily our deepest team in the Bruce era and we are thankfully getting back to a lineup with all 5 guys as three point threats and stretching the floor way we did 2017-2020.

The SEC is extremely deep though with UK, Arkansas, UT, Miss State etc. Gonna be an awesome year....

Just a casual fan trying to make a list. “Two, it will be an adjustment to go from a bunch of veteran, experienced upperclassmen to a bunch of inexperienced freshmen.”

We are starting
PG Senior
SG 5th year senior
SF Freshman (#6 overall)
PF Senior
C Sophomore (All-American)

While he does have bball ties, there's a lot of holes. It's almost as if he wanted to be different.
