Outside of the top 2, there's a ridiculous amount of variation amongst the final 10 spots.

Except for all of us having Wazzu in 12th.

We probably all have ASU too low. But I really couldn't stomach picking them any higher than 9th. :lol:

The thing with a lot of these other teams is that there was a lot of change for Cal, Oregon, Washington, UCLA and USC. Hard to predict that.

And then there are the cases of Stanford and Oregon State. Give those rosters to Boyle or Montgomery and we'd be picking them higher than we are. Hard to have faith in teams that haven't done anything with what they've had and when there's a lot of reason to question Dawkins and Robinson.

 

[wyobuff]

Apparently no one is as big on utah as I am for next year. I think they can really break through.
Like nik said though, I think once again in the p12 there's going to be a small amount of distance at the top, a jumbled 4-10 slots, and a pair of bottom dwellers.

I think Utah continues to improve, but I've got the P12 sending 7 teams to the Dance. Sending 2 or 3 to the NIT with winning records isn't out of the question. I'm expecting the conference to do very well in OOC play this coming season and then we'll beat up on each other with 3 or 4 teams fighting it out at the top.

If I'm not mistaken, Utah is losing most of their top guys. I actually expect them to be worse next year.

Just checked and they lose Washburn and Dubois. I thought there was another key loss, but I still see them being worse. I love Loveridge though.

 

[BuffDog]

I hope Utah continues to improve so they can wear out teams a bit before they come and play us on Saturday.

I think that utah got some pretty good recruits coming in this year - I think that it was someone tad had his eye on (unless im mistaking that for loveridge)

They signed 6 guys. 3 of them are JUCO. 4 of the 6 have no star rating at all and the other 2 are 3-stars.

It's not a good sign when only one of your recruits has a profile picture on Rivals.

Thats exactly what I was wondering. He hasnt been the same since that game in the pit.

That and I think he's in a good situation in Oregon. He has a badass PG in Artis, and Dotson will be shooting from the outside, so that should free him up a bit. My only question is Oregon's post play. Jordan Bell is going to be good, but not sure he's going to be ready to be "the man" as a freshman. But Moser's in a good situation to see his numbers go back up.

 

[mattrob]

Player of the Year: Damyean Dotson

I think Dotson might be the most overrated player in the conference. I'm just not all that impressed with him. He's a solid role player, but I'm not convinced he'll take that next step.

As far as I'm concerned, Stanford is incapable of making the Dance with their current regime and Cal is forever incapable of winning the Pac-12 Tournament.
