My prediction is that in 2-3 weeks all our predictions will look way off.

Happens every year - that's the fun of it!

Group 1 - Seton Hall, Xavier, Villanova

Group 2 - Providence, UConn, Creighton

Group 3 - Marquette, DePaul, SJU

Group 4 - Butler, Gtown

Best predictions of the group thus far. Luv it.

Hey XU Sandy. Reverse alphabetical order would put Connecticut in 5th place, by the way.

Asking for a friend, where is UConn?

Shows how accurate that site is.

Butler (rebuilding, not a lot of upside potential this season)

Sandy...???. Looks like everyone here is snoozing on Futler. Are they not the deepest BE squad other than X? They go 11 deep with decent quality. Christian at the end is pretty dang good.....not counting Malloy @ 12. They are well coached with excellent tradition. No WAY DePaul finishes above the Bulldogs!

Futler

That's cute. What else did you steal from Wright State?

Git'....Your Jays are going to certainly create havoc, but are you seriously considering DePaul as anything other than cellar status? I mean Mohammed keeps GTown out off that musty hell hole....no?

Can you elaborate? I thought Buck Futler was an organic X thing.
