Pre pre season top 25 polls thread.

[Parakeet Jones]

I thought I’d start a thread to compile all the pre pre season top 25 polls in.  I know they mean nothing, but we’ve got a long wait with not much to discuss.  This one has us  at #23. There are five B1G teams ahead of us. https://collegehoopstoday.com/index.php/rothstein-files/early-edition-preseason-45-for-20-21/

Not sure there's a better basketball name than Rocket Watts.

Also interesting that the projection doesn't even have Aaron Henry testing the waters. @IU Scott?

Purdue at #43...apparently Rothstein not sold on their killer incoming class.

i like speculating about too early top 25s personally.  of course it doesn't matter, but it's interesting sports debating.  thing is, it really really means nothing until we know who is definitely leaving early and who transfers where.  i would think we'd have a legit chance to be top 25 quality though.  i remember going into this season all of the services picked us around 9-11 in the conference and many on here said it didn't matter what those services thought, that we'd be better than that.

I think Ivey, Morton, Franklin, and Newman is a pretty solid class coming in lol. I think it’s more of him not trusting the guys who played this year.

Lander not considered in IU's ranking for next year in this poll.  I think if he comes, it will certainly enhance our preseason standing.
