Pretty much a foregone conclusion that Georgetown and Marquette will likely be the top two, but a lot can happen in a season.

Foregone conclusion? LOL. :lol:

Villanova, Creighton,& St. John's will have something to say about that. Don't be surprised if Providence is heard from as well before all is said and done. 8-)

I thought he was referring to the poll.

Georgetown - 7 total, 1 freshman
Marquette - 6 total, 3 freshmen
Creighton - 0 total

Here are the same numbers for some of the teams that have already been ranked lower in this poll:

St. John's - 6 total, 1 freshman
Villanova - 6 total, 2 freshmen
Xavier - 4 total, 0 freshmen
Providence - 3 total, 1 freshman

Star ratings are fromRivals and Scout.



Dee Davis 4 star on Scout
Semaj Christon 5 star on scout, 4 star on rivals
Isaiah Philmore 4 star on rivals
Justin Martin 4 star on both
Jalen Reynolds 4 star on both
Brandon Randolph 4 star on scout

That would be 6 4 stars or better for Xavier, 1 freshman

2014 class
Makinde London Top 100 ESPN, Scout, & Rivals
JP Macura top 100 Scout
Edmond Sumner top 100 ESPN
