No St. Louis in his top 40. Kind of a surprise.

I'm a little speechless that Vitale has us in his top 25 and Katz has us in his top 35. They're basically predicting us not just to make the tournament, but to be a 6-8 seed in the tournament next year. ESPN's BPI is rolling over in it's grave.

Wonder if either of them know about Morgan. Either way, I'll take it!

I'm happy for the enthusiasm...but with Morgan, Vinson, and Riley gone, I'm not sure where the confidence is coming from. Chaz and Cady should be huge, but outside of that we're really relying on question marks...I like DG and hopefully he And Clyde are great, but that's pretty unknown.

I'd like to hear more about how they see it, what their logic is.

Judging from the TB&DG chronicles, Gordon's put on quite a bit of muscle since then.

Playing for St. Patrick's, DG has already played in more high pressure games than a lot of college players will in their four years. He also played in the NCAA tournament with WKU, so I would say he is ready for prime time. And wow, can he finish at the rim.
