My preseason top 50 is obviously still a work in progress since we won’t know for certain who is withdrawing from the NBA Draft, who is staying in, and who else might be a surprise late pickup via the transfer wire.
But here’s what we do know: Veteran teams should have a major advantage this season, and that bodes well for Baylor, Villanova and Gonzaga — which are really 1A, 1B and 1C in my latest rankings.
The biggest surprises just might be Arizona State and Richmond, which both cracked the top 15. The Big Ten and SEC both have nine teams in the Top 50, but the Big Ten has four in the top 15 while the SEC doesn’t have a single team in the top 15.
