Preseason College Basketball Rankings: #4 Kentucky Wildcats

By: Jacob Stephens, Associate Editor | November 3, 2022November 2, 2022

For the second straight year, Kentucky does something that is unusual for them: they return a lot of their minutes from last season. Preseason College Basketball Rankings: #4 Kentucky Wildcats One of the most impactful draft decisions to happen was the 2021-22 AP Player of the Year and Naismith Award winner Oscar Tshiebwe deciding to […] READ MORE


Preseason College Basketball Rankings: #5 Creighton Bluejays

By: Jacob Stephens, Associate Editor | November 2, 2022November 1, 2022
Creighton Basketball

We have reached the top five. With it comes Creighton. They are the team that has happened to unseat Villanova as the preseason favorite in the Big East. They return a lot of talent from last year’s team, which was young and really overachieved. Plus, they bring in arguably the best player in the transfer […] READ MORE


Preseason College Basketball Rankings: #11 Tennessee Volunteers

By: Jacob Stephens, Associate Editor | October 27, 2022October 26, 2022

Tennessee looked like one of the best teams in the country down the stretch last season. They ran through and won the SEC Tournament championship. Then came a terrible seeding job by the selection committee as the Volunteers were given a 3 seed. While the Vols did lose two key players, they are still looking […] READ MORE


Preseason College Basketball Rankings: #12 Indiana Hoosiers

By: Jacob Stephens, Associate Editor | October 26, 2022October 26, 2022

If you are wondering if it really took this long to get to a Big Ten team in my rankings, then you would be correct. Considering the conference had nine teams make the NCAA Tournament last season, it can be surprising, but all of them, except for Indiana, suffered huge losses. They return 78.1% of […] READ MORE


Preseason College Basketball Rankings: #13 Texas Longhorns

By: Jacob Stephens, Associate Editor | October 26, 2022October 26, 2022

Texas just never seemed to find enough cohesion and consistency in order to succeed last year. The Longhorns did lose a lot of talent, but they also brought a lot of talent back and brought in even more. With more time together, this team should be able to find that consistency that they did not […] READ MORE


Preseason College Basketball Rankings: #19 Oregon Ducks

By: Jacob Stephens, Associate Editor | October 19, 2022October 18, 2022

There was arguably not a team that was a bigger disappointment last season than the Oregon Ducks. Multiple big losses will hurt but a good group of newcomers will try to make up for them. Dana Altman is one of the best and most consistent head coaches in the country. The Ducks have won at […] READ MORE


Preseason College Basketball Rankings: #20 TCU Horned Frogs

By: Jacob Stephens, Associate Editor | October 18, 2022October 17, 2022

TCU was a 9 seed in the NCAA Tournament last season and almost upset 1 seed Arizona in the second round. Everyone from that team comes back this year. This could be Jamie Dixon’s best squad since Pitt. The Horned Frogs could very well be too low on this list. Preseason College Basketball Rankings: #20 […] READ MORE


Preseason College Basketball Rankings: #22 San Diego State Aztecs

By: Jacob Stephens, Associate Editor | October 16, 2022October 15, 2022

The San Diego State Aztecs and head coach Brian Dutcher have benefitted like no other from the extra year of player eligibility due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Four fifth-seniors return for the team this season. They will be the favorites in a strong Mountain West. You can check out the previous team in my rankings […] READ MORE


Preseason College Basketball Rankings: #23 Saint Louis Billikens

By: Jacob Stephens, Associate Editor | October 15, 2022October 15, 2022

The Saint Louis Billikens had a very disappointing season last year. Javonte Perkins tore his ACL just a couple of weeks before the season started and that seemed to majorly throw them off. But he is back healthy this year and five of the top six guys from last year’s team return as well. The […] READ MORE


Preseason College Basketball Rankings: #24 Connecticut Huskies

By: Jacob Stephens, Associate Editor | October 14, 2022October 13, 2022

UConn was a solid team last year, but did not play to its full potential. They lost three starters but return one of the favorites for Big East Player of the Year and a do-it-all wing, as well as bring in a trio of high-impact guards via the transfer portal. Head coach Dan Hurley has […] READ MORE
