Off the top of my head...
1. UK
2. UCLA
3. IU
4. NC State
5. Michigan State
Also considered Louisville, Florida, UNLV, Baylor, and Duke.
Still need to wait and see who else ends up declaring and who transfers where though.

Such a joke that Indiana got a post-season ban (I know, self-imposed) and a lot worse recruiting restrictions that this. Sampson did the same thing, but the actual content of the texts was tame in comparison...plus, he was FIREDDDDD!!!! WTF. I hate the NCAA.Mulva;1141940 wrote:Sounds like Baylor basically got a slap on the wrist for punishment. NCAA didn't add anything to the self-imposed sanctions.
Drew suspended for 2 B12 games. I think a 1 scholarship reduction, and probation.

Tough to say UK at this point. They have the most upside, but I wouldn't call their rotation a #1 just yet.
PG Harrow
SG Goodwin
SF Poythress
PF Wiltjer
C Noel
Willie Cauley, Jon Hood, Twany Beckham.
Now, they still have a legit shot at Bennett, Oriakhi and Jefferson...and they still have an outside chance of someone staying, although extremely unlikely.
Indiana, Louisville and UCLA have pretty much set rosters. All are loaded. North Carolina and Kansas are in the conversation.
Baylor, Florida, Duke, Ohio State, Michigan State, St. Louis, Syracuse, N.C. State, Arizona, Michigan, Virginia Commonwealth, Wisconsin, Creighton, Kansas State, Tennessee, Gonzaga, West Virginia, New Mexico and San Diego State should all be in the top 25 somewhere.

Baylor is contingent on Quincy coming back. I have no idea if he announced his plans yet or not.Laley23;1142262 wrote:Baylor I agree with, but not MSU or UNLV.
I think UNLV is gonna be legit. Moser and Marshall + Birch and Reinhardt (top 50 recruit and sharpshooter - exactly what they need to replace Stanback).
MSU is more iffy. Putting a lot of faith in Payne and Appling continuing to develop, Nix still being on the team, Dawson coming back from his injury, and Gary Harris contributing off the bat. Probably too many ifs, but we'll see.
UNC loses way too much. They're basically bringing back 1 post player and going to rely on a freshman PG. You could probably throw Kansas in there for Duke or UNLV, but I don't think it's a definite.

Im pretty sure Quincy Miller is returning. It immediately made them, for me, a top 5 team. I hate it too, cause I hate Scott Drew.

Already another way-too-early Top 25, you say? Well, a lot has changed since the night of the national title game, when we published our initial rankings.
Almost all of the underclassmen have made up their minds concerning the draft -- save for a few who are taking advantage of the extra time allowed by a late-April NBA deadline. The decisions went mostly as expected, but there were a few surprises that caused a shakeup in our poll.

But UNLV is definitely a darkhorse pick. I think they'll be ranked in the 15-20 range in the actual polls when the season starts. But that wasn't the question.

Katz's revamped top 25 (after more decisions have been made).

I think he's overrating the top of the B1G (very slightly, but still). I would put IU top 5, but not #1. And I would have UM and OSU somewhere in the 10-15 range but not at 5 and 8. It should be a really, really strong year for the conference though.

No question Indiana should be number 1. They have everyone back and some talented freshman coming in

Yeah, if IU isnt #1, I think Louisville is the only team ahead...on paper.
Also, this might be the best crop of recruits the Big Ten has had come along in a very, very long time. Very deep class for them. When a kid going to Wisconsin is the best player, imo, it says a lot. Cause Bo doesnt recruit them very often.

I did forget about Taylor. Was thinking he was a senior. That helps. Still not sure about top 5. Top 10 yes. But its pre-season. Pretty much guess work with many times that early.SportsAndLady;1142150 wrote:Kansas is gonna be really good...finally get Ben McLemore in the lineup, along with Traylor. 5 incoming freshman coming in, including Perry Ellis (beast).
Then they have Elijah Johnson, Travis Releford, Jeff Withey, Kevin Young, Naadir Tharpe, Justin Wesley
They'll be deep as ****...Bill Self is gonna work his magic again

Still not sold on all the MSU hype. Green was their all everything, including a HUGE leader. Thats a big time loss for them in many ways. I am sure Izzo will work his magic. But it may take him to mid season IMO.Mulva;1142217 wrote:Off the top of my head...

Prior to Sully leaving, they only had 1 scholarship to offer. So I think they were being selective with that. If they didn't get who they wanted (which they aren't, Parker), then they are probably going to bank it and possibly take a transfer.carmen;1142302 wrote:Why hasnt OSU gotten any 2012 recruits?
