| This sounds about right. Could finish higher if the team really gels. Could finish lower if things never quite come together. They'll make the tourney and be a dangerous team to play on any given night though. Nobody wants to play a scrappy, hard working, defend your tail off kind of team. |

| I'm okay with this. I think we'll end up ranked at the end of the season, and I'm just basing that on how well I've seen the team gel thus far.

| Yep. I'm fine with this. He's mostly spot on with the rest of his IMO. I'd swap Florida with North Carolina and I'd move Butler up.

| If we have a favorable schedule early on we can jump into the top 25 before SEC play even starts |

And for sure. I could see us being ranked before the SEC starts. In fact, a strong showing in Puerto Rico could get us ranked. A game against NC State would be tough! I'd love to see Stokes and Maymon go head to head against Leslie in the paint.

I saw Virginia was starting next year but not wake forest? |

| I must of just pulled that one out of nowhere then because I really thought Martin scheduled a home / away with W Forest before the season started. ehh my bad.

| There were discussions early last season about a possible series with UVA, Wake, and NCSU. We got UVA. |
