We rate behind Wisconsin. Huh? Wait and see Greg Gard. Wait and see.

Other thoughts:

  Memphis ahead of Vanderbilt or the Unievrsity of Tennessee? Don't think so.
  BYU over Utah? Yeah, Rick Majerus is rolling in his grave.
  Ohio State over Cincinnati? Nope
  Kentucky over Louisville... That's a tough one.

Benny preemptively approves of this thread. 

Not the article, just the thread.

Basketball is #1 at Memphis., #3 at Tennessee. They don't have to deal with the academic requirements of Vandy.
BYU?  Tough one but they are in a better position to win in their conference and make the tourney.
Ohio State - money and better facilities
Kentucky - tough one for sure but I'd go UK

Myron showing the Big East some love:

"Ed Cooley ($2 million) coaches in the Big East, arguably the nation's pound-for-pound conference king..."

In terms of resources, Marquette comes out ahead of Wisconsin, particularly with the chance to play in a new pro arena and the coming sports medicine tie-in.  Wisconsin has definitely come out ahead recently in results.  Paradoxically, by over evaluating the Wisconsin program, Myron ends up short changing Bo's legacy and Gard's initial results.  They are the darling of most of the state, though.

NCAA investigations were factored in which makes Kentucky a much easier choice.
