| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Kansas
|
Transfer additions in the Lawsons and Moore should be a huge help. Self will have his first true PF + C lineups in years. |
| 2 |
Virginia
|
|
| 3 |
Duke
|
Can't get a better coach or recruiting class than that. May struggle early though with lack of experience. |
| 4 |
Gonzaga
|
|
| 5 |
Nevada
|
Wouldn't be surprised if a good number of voters forgot about them entirely, but they have added great pieces and returned starters. |

North Carolina
|
|
| 7 |
Kentucky
|
|
| 8 |
Michigan State
|
|
| 9 |
Villanova
|
Great coach and system held back from relatively low returning minutes. |
| 10 |
Tennessee
|
Returning one of the largest share of minutes in the nation |
| 11 |
West Virginia
|
Loss of Daxter Miles and Jevon Carter will limit ceiling of team. Sagaba Konate will continue to end lives at the rim. |
| 12 |
Syracuse
|
Returning almost everyone; great coach in Boeheim. |
| 13 |
Oregon
|
|
| 14 |
Miami (FL)

Ethan Happ. |
| 22 |
Seton Hall
|
|
| 23 |
Arizona State

Fell off shortly into last year, but with another year under their belt I would not be surprised if they stormed back in style. |
| 24 |
TCU
|
Return of Jalen Fisher should help tremendously. Expect another fun offensive team. |
| 25 |
Texas Tech
|
Great results last year, coaching seemed good, but not large enough of a sample size to justify putting higher |
