    Purdue would be #3 if Hummel had not torn his knee up again. UNC and UK are only that high because of their tradition, neither of them should be that high to start off, UK especially... Pitt is ranked too high as well.

    Jamie Dixon is a great coach. Pitt will be very dangerous in March as they have been in recent years. I do not think they are the 4th best team in the country though.

    Please tell me which 4 big east teams you think belong in the top 10. Georgetown should not even be in the top 25, at least not to start off with.

    I'm not sure there should be four Big East teams in the top ten, two or three at the most. Pitt, WV, and UConn.

    Pitt and Nova are def top 10 teams. WV lost great players from last year in Butler and that other tall wing whose name escapes me. So they are not top 10 right now. The UCONN CONVICTS suck and I wouldnt compliment them if they were good anyway. Hate them...
