Not one single MU player on this list. I would have expected definately Lockett, and maybe Blue or Wilson to be on it.

Not bothered, once I got to around 60 I was actually hoping not to see any MU guys on it. A little motivation, because I'm confident by the time March rolls around, there will be at least 2-3 guys worth putting on such a list, if not more.

Honestly, we as MU fans should not be surprised if MUBB isnt on the radar, right? I know we have been really pretty successful in the past, but all these pre-season rankings and such are trash.

No respect,as usual. Guys that haven't played one college game yet.  Motivation!!

I'm the biggest polyanna and homer, but there is no way we have a top 100 player this year.  This list is really accurate - in fact 75 of the 100 are in the Value Add top 200 based purely on stats. 

Certainly it would be great if one of the guys broke out and was a top 100 player by the end of the year.  Lockett should really explode, but he wasn't even top 1000 last year, Mayo and Blue played like top 100 for an isolated game or two but are nowhere close going in.  The only guy even close would have been Gardner if his defense is at least adequate this year, and Jamil really has to get a ton more defensive rebounds to get close to that space - which is the top 2% to 3% of all players.

What we have next year is perhaps the most balanced 8 or even 10 men rotations in the country - so I'm not trying to be negative but just point out we have a great team this year rather than a dynamic duo or Three Amigos, etc.

Buzz has a lot of chip on the shoulder material to use this year...not in Top 40 per Vitale, no To 100 players.  Think it sets up just the way he likes it.
