Probably not, but nothing to be discouraged about. Jay Bilas was raving about our upside even though we didn't play well in his insider article. Still plenty of season left.

we won't be ranked but that's fine with me. a win against missouri and depaul this week would be huge. next week's games are just as important with at illinios (who is struggling so it makes it even more important to win that) and wku at the sommet center. if we can somehow go 4-0 in these games we'll be back in the rankings with some soft games at home over christmas break heading into SEC play.

The long and short of it is he thought we were a good team that didn't play very well, that we need a healthy and in shape Ogilvy, that our bigs need to play tougher, which he thinks they can, that Jeffery Taylor was the best athlete at the tournament and that John Jenkins was the best pure shooter.

fell to 29th in coaches and 33rd in AP poll. at least we didn't fall as far as maryland. the one loss to cincy isn't bad in my opinion. they are now ranked 22nd and 24th and their loss came to 16/17th ranked gonzaga. it's a long season with plenty of time for things to smooth out.

missouri is still getting a couple of votes in each poll so should help vandy some.

depaul is surprisingly getting nothing. i thought they'd have 1 or 2 in each poll as well.
