Gopher Men's Basketball Ranked #18

The preseason USA Today/ESPN poll has the Gopher Men's Basketball team ranked #18.

Star-divide

The preseason USA Today/ESPN poll has the Gopher Men's Basketball team ranked #18. This would be good for fourth in the Big Ten behind Michigan State (#3), Purdue(#7), and Michigan(#15). See the full rankings here: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/rankings?pollId=2

Looks like the national guys perceive a strong Big Ten this year.

wow

that seems high. Nice for national perception though, and with an easy schedule we shouldn’t drop for quite some time.

that seems about right

for the last 6 months every preview of the top 25 had us in the 15-18 range. They return everything and had a nationally recognized recruiting class.

what you say here can, and will, be used against you

And having a class act, championship coach isn’t hurting things either.

I have be correctly accused of having a 'football fetish'. You know, someone who doesn't think football is the warm up sport to basketball season.

Nice statistical breakdown of player improvement by year.

Bodes well for the Gophers.
