    I don't have a login at TOB, but I peruse it from time to time, and cold doesn't post there either anymore. Not sure what happened to the guy.

              Anybody think these folks will put their actual votes where their mouths are?

              I'm guessing WSU is not top 10 in the preseason poll.

                I will be VERY surprised if, assuming no major injuries or departures, WSU is not preseason top 10. Please feel free to keep track of this prediction and haunt me with it if it turns out not to be true.

                  May 15, 2017, 11:00am

                  College basketball rankings: Kentucky moves up to No. 6 in the Top 25 (and one)
                  http://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/college-basketball-rankings-late-recruiting-lifts-duke-to-no-6-in-top-25-and-one/
                  Arizona, led by Allonzo Trier and DeAndre Ayton, is No. 1.



                  "The CBS Sports Preseason Top 25 (and one) will continue to change over time -- specifically when underclassmen who have declared for the NBA Draft without agents finalize decisions and impactful prospects still uncommitted announce their college destinations. But, for now, Kansas, Arizona, Michigan State, North Carolina and Wichita State represent the top five....

                  1. Kansas
                  2. Arizona
                  3. Michigan State
                  4. North Carolina
                  5. WSU

                  Notable players definitely gone: Daishon Smith
                  Notable players also expected to leave: None
                  Notable players expected to return: Markis McDuffie, Landry Shamet, Darral Willis, Shaquille Morris, Conner Frankamp, Zach Brown, Rashard Kelly, Rauno Nurger, Austin Reaves
                  Notable newcomers: Asbjorn Midtgaard, Samajae Jones

                  Why the Shockers are here: Almost every relevant player from a Wichita State team that won 31 games and finished eighth at KenPom should be back -- most notably Markis McDuffie and Landry Shamet. So Wichita State will be the favorite in the American Athletic Conference in its first year in the American Athletic Conference.

                  6. Duke
                  7. Louisville
                  8. Kentucky
                  9. Villanova
                  10. USC..."
