X in the top 15?

Postby Mr. Neutral » Sat Jun 21, 2008 10:21 pm

Rivals.com has a college b-ball writers roundtable, with the question being which team is the most glaring omission from preseason top 25s.

Baylor, Miami (FL) and Ariz. St. were picked by one writer each, with the 4th picking X, opining that X will finish in the top 15.

Hope he's right.

Hmm, I think this team will be very solid in 2 or 3 seasons when the influx new players matures. I don't think Xavier will be Top 25 next season but it depends on how well the PG and C spot are filled. It'll be exciting none-the-less. Can Xavier transition to a heavier inside game with a better inside player (Frease)?

Xavier will be loaded next season. Maybe the most athletic Xavier team ever. I know they will have a couple of young guys but not being top 25 and a tourney team would be a major let down. Xavier is not at a point where they reload, not rebuild. And that will be the case as long as Sean Miller is here.
