The 2024-25 men’s basketball season is right around the corner, and some prognosticators have published their preseason rankings.
We’ve brought them all together for you with the most recent updates.
So far, we’ve aggregated 14 media rankings (shown below) by assigning a No. 1 ranking the value of 25 points, a No. 2 ranking of 24 points, and so on.
The rounded result is divided by 14 and subtracted from 25, yielding the SuperWest Composite Rank.
Schools ranked by just one media outlet (in this case, New Mexico) appear in the individual ranking but not in the composite.
The composite ranking and the individual media rankings, updated post-NBA Draft deadline and transfer portal moves, appear below.
