Purdue 15th in the preseason AP poll

http://collegebasketball.ap.org/poll

I still don't get Maryland being ranked.

iu's ranking also a mystery to me other than the press seems to have a history of liking them early & often in the pre-season. They lost a high % of guard play and overall scoring. We know Blackman will score assuming he is healthy to go full on, but we have seen he does not like to play D.......and can give up as many as he scores.

In the B1G I like Wisconsin to run away with it assuming they are healthy and Purdue second. Purdue could be better than advertised if CE and Spike can deliver. MSU should also be interesting to see how they do & how are coached with no real size.

I've said this a number of times, but I think that Purdue's backcourt will be much better than it is currently getting credit for.
 
We have been hearing how we have no guards for the past few years yet IU losses Yogi and Troy and they are still ranked high. Can't wait to see it on the court this year. Nice to see it's finally a home and home again.
