I think that is the lowest I have seen Arkansas ranked in one of the preseason polls.

SEC should be a fun watch this winter. Kentucky, Arkansas, Tenn, Auburn, Alabama all pretty good teams.

Big 10 will be a bloodbath again and no team makes it to elite 8.

my Ramblers jump into a league with one team in the top 25 and another at 30.

Frank Martin and Archie Miller are in year 1 of their programs.

the A-10 is going to be tough

Ramblers should be in the top half of the league.

At least the Hoops coach make adjustments throughout the year.

They will be a mid pack Big 10 team is my guess. You lose for the second year in a row, an All American and have to somewhat start over. kris Murray will take a step - he's not as explosive as Keegan but he's solid. Tony Perkins is a tough Big Ten guard. The one thing I will say I hate about Fran is having a too deep rotation. He's talking about running out 11-12 players. Hope he tightens that up.

Kentucky just got DJ Wagner to commit. I remember watching his grandfather come in to play as a freshman. You know how I feel old...

I saw Memphis vs Georgetown at The Pyramid back in the spring of 1997 when I was going to school in Memphis. Neither team had a very good squad back then but it was memorable.

Curbelo is still undisciplined. Lot of excitement generated but still struggles to score.

I can't remember which station it was in Chicago carried Metro conference games I think on Monday nights. Loved those Dana Kirk Memphis teams.

He's a lot of fun to watch but he's like Sidney Deane. He looks good while he's losing.

They won tonight against Nebraska - and had a couple highlight reel plays but also several WTF moments.

I am shocked at how far along Purdue is. They absolutely crushed Gonzaga and Duke. They lost like 70% of the minutes played last year and a lottery pick and there is a good chance this team is better than that one.

They won’t have let Ivey take several
Wild shots in a row anymore and play Purdue basketball.

That's the truth.

This team also doesn't consider defense to be optional.

The Big Ten appears to be a lot better than expected.

Purdue, Illinois, MSU all should be elite. Indiana probably makes the tournament too.

As much as I don’t like Purdue, I do like what Painter has built but his best teams lack the single scorer approach.

Big Ten's got some work to do tomorrow, but it looks like a good slate of games.
