CollegeHoops.net Top 144 countdown

[tornado]

That's right ISU was picked to be 7th in the Valley with Indiana State 8th.

Their list of #145 through #336 is also due out soon.

[Da Coach]

So they picked ISU 7th in the Valley, correct?

Correct- in case you didn't see it, tornado started a separate thread about ISU's ranking of #109 nationally, and 7th in the MVC--

[That Guy]

Yeah, I saw that thread almost immediately afterwards. It happens...

#107 Depaul
#106 Baylor
#105 UIC

Depaul 107?

[tornado]

The next couple teams have been revealed:

#107 DePaul (picked 13th in the Big East!)
#106 Baylor (they were 4-12 in a pretty weak Big XII last year!)
#105 Illinois-Chicago (I have my doubts that the additions of Billy Baptist and a couple freshmen can compensate for losing Othyus Jeffers)

Or win it.

I hope I am wrong. I recall wanting to select somewhere in the early-mid 90's but it was already taken.... so I went for the lowest triple digit.

No respect for Dar Tucker and Mac Koshwal!

The next round of picks are announced:

#104 Boston College
#103 South Alabama
#102 UC-Santa Barbara

By the way, BC is picked to be 10th in the Big East, so expect a whole bunch of Big East teams to come.

Isn't BC in the ACC? Or was I on vacation for too long?

Yep and I don't know.

Comical actually for UIC to be ranked higher than ISU. At best it's comical. I expect ISU to beat them by a wide margin when they trek to Normal this season.

I nominate Othyus Jeffers for some sort of Name of the Year Award in NCAA athletics. It's a great name.

More of a brain cramp that a typo, but I knew that...
They are picked 10th in the ACC

[Dubl R 1]

I thought Jeffers was a junior. Didn't he get shot in the off season?

[Da Coach]

He was just a junior.
Yes, he was shot.
But he announced he was leaving UIC, and transferring to Robert Morris in Chicago (?NAIA) for his senior season.
