Preseason polls are so worthless in all college sports and especially in basketball. With the transfer portal being such a huge factor in collegiate sports its hard to asses any team. Teams can go out and use the transfer portal and build an entire new starting 5 or an entire new team for that matter. It's guaranteed you can look at a roster every season and see 3 or 4 guys that transferred in or it may be their 2nd time transferring. You really won't know what you will get in a team until the season gets underway. It's not all about players skills. It's more about their chemistry.

Add to that in basketball all you have to do is hit on 1 or 2 of those guys to dramtically change a team's outlook and competitiveness. My oldest daughter graduated from FAU and they were between mediocre to horrible when she graduated just a couple of years ago. Last year they went to the Final Four and this year are starting at #10 in the AP rankings.

All that team needed was Brady Manek to make a deep run. You can always find a diamond in the rough in the portal. |
