Now im sure some of you will probably think this is a joke of a top 25 poll. But I am a die hard fan of college basketball and here is a look at last years top 25 I had
1. Siena
2. Butler
3. Gonzaga
4. Dayton
5. Western Kentucky
the top 5 are the easy ones
6. Xavier
7. San Diego State
8. UNLV
9. St. Marys
10. Southern Illinois-- player suspended they drop in my ranks
11. Delaware-- Mason or Delaware
12. Radford
13. St. Louis
14. George Mason- will it be Mason or Delaware
15. Tulsa
16. Belmont
17. Toldedo-- Ohio or Toldedo this year
18. Illinois State
19. Niagra
20. Liberty
21. Santa Clara
22. College of Charleston
23. Nicholls State
24. Ohio-- Ohio or Toledo
25. Fairfield
I apparently had Siena at the one spot. Keep I mind I created these last June/July. You could make an argument with Dayton being a Mid Major is the A-10 a power conference now. I think it has proved itself to be a quality conference and I would like to take consider the A10 a power league.
Southern Illinois ended up choking under pressure they had the raw talent but just couldnt handle the pressure Im gonna give them another shot in the 2010-2011 season though.
Delaware was a complete FLOP for me. Im deciding on what to do with them next year. I have to wonder if its there coach thats causing problems they have raw talent for a CAA league that is competitive.
Radford ended up choking in the Conference tourney
St.Louis was a team I was loving in the preseason and they got it done with a very impressive season.
I was having a hard decision with the MAC preseason teams. I loved Toledo and Ohio to win there conference. Toledo like Delaware has the talent but I have to question the coaching. Toledo fired there coach though and will have a new coach for the 2010-2011 season.
Ohio got the job done though and ended up winning the conference. I was loving the Chicago Guard DJ COOPER going to play there. Guard that flew way under the radar not getting the respect he deserved.
Illinois State ended up choking once again
Fairfield had a great season and im expecting high expectations from them in the 2010-2011 season. They have a power TRANSFER coming in. With already the best Guard in the MAAC.
Now lets take a look at next seasons top 25
