1 Villanova University Logo Villanova Tier 1 Coin toss, I think Villanova has the most continuity, no one new is added to the team but you could put Zags here too
2 Gonzaga University Logo Gonzaga Tier 1 - Tier 1 Teams I think are Natty Champs contenders, I'll try and only have 4 teams in Tier 1
3 University of Virginia Logo Virginia Tier 1b
4 Baylor University Logo Baylor Tier 1b - Had them at #2 but the Tristan Clark retirement I have to drop them a bit
