Obviously these rankigns will change as we start playing games, but it's nice that the Hoyas are thought so highly of in his system.

23rd on offense 27th on defense.

Projects us to 12-6 in conference 18-9 overall, but that doesn't include the 2 games in Atlantis after Florida which presumably would be 2 wins over UAB and Oklahoma.

but taken game by game he predicts 14-4 in conference and 23-6 overall.

Think we match up well with Florida, if we bring it we can beat those guys

Chris Walker vs Josh should be an interesting matchup, one Josh would need to dominate in order to get the W.

Wow, looks like KenPom is now making stats available to coaches in-game: please make sure JT3 signs up!

I really hope that they are correct in that the BEAST has five teams in the top fifty or so. Hoyas, Nova, and Johnnies all need to have big seasons.

[FrazierFanatic]

List is clearly flawed: no Memphis in the top 10

[McBricks]

I'd be pretty darn happy with a 23-6 record.

Apparently, so does Billy Donovan's father-in-law:

thanks for sharing that report about the status and potential of the Georgetown basketball team. I am now more than a little worried about their November 26 date with Florida.
