I noticed that we are not in the top 25 nor in the other teams receiving votes, whats up with that!? Being able to gut out tough games like today's should demonstrate that we deserving of a better rank. If we can edge ELON no telling where we will land...

I'm going to assume this is just a weird joke.

I agree GU should be among others receiving votes. As far as an Elon win, there may have been a slight possibly of landing anywhere if we'd blown out Colgate by 40 and Elon as well

I don't want to see this squad anywhere near a ranking until February.

Kansas looks eminently shockable after watching their game at Colorado; whether this Hoya team will be up to that task in a couple weeks remains to be seen.

Afraid a win over Kansas won't do too much to sway voters' opinions at this point.

did you watch this team play Colgate. Has this team shown anyone they deserve a vote.

I just don't want the usual climb in the rankings where our fans over estimate the squad. Happens every year.

I just don't want the usual climb in the rankings where our fans over estimate the squad. Happens every year. And every year(outside of 2009) they pretty much live up to their ranking until Tournament time or injury hits. Being scared of rankings because of fan expectations just isn't logical. With the new Big East this of all years is a year it where rankings matter and being ranked is more important that actually be that good.

Kansas has looked really good and totally beatable at times this year. Our Hoyas have a lot of work to do.

Very funny post...your cynicism is coming all thru the message board. Thanks! It was meant just to be a funny post. It seems like we have a bit of a stretch between games and was going thru some hoya withdrawals haha. Someone said I was a troll. Really? Whats up with that?

Ranking does not bother me. We just need to keep getting better. I do think we have the potential to crack the top 25 by February after Josh drops another 25 lbs.

Josh Smith/Hopkins are the x-factors.
