2. MSU--I think Lusk (who is a great recruiter) has enough talent this year to over come floor coaching faux pas
3. UNI--they always have horses underneath to play the junk pack it in defense--some good outside shooting teams will shred that concept however
4. LUC--I just put these guys in here because it seems to be conventional wisdom that they have tremendous talent
5. Valpo---Valpo has a few good transfers on line to contribute--love their coach
6. ISU---if Mueller can coach this group of "talent" to move up, THEN I will conceed he is a great game coach
7. Instate---great coach has to deal with little talent
8. Bradley--why does everyone think these guys will be so good? I just don't see it
9. UE---Marty is still coaching?
10. DU----great GPA, low RPI
I think people have Bradley in the middle of the pack because they return the most offense, etc. of any team in the league. Does that mean anything? Who knows but generally teams that return a lot get picked a bit higher.
Help me understand SIU as first...that I don't get. The top two scorers are gone along with the team leader in assists and rebounds.
