Submitted on Friday, October 31, 2014 at 3:04AM EDT
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Kentucky
|
Although Kentucky may not have brought back a whole team, good god can coach Cal recruit. |
| 2 |
Arizona
|
They bring back lots of experience from last season and have added some new talent to the roster. Easily a deadly team from the onset. |
| 3 |
Duke
|
Duke easily brought in some of the best talent available for this season. Plus, they have some talent already there! |
| 4 |
Wisconsin
|
This roster is filled with experience (and Kaminsky). |
| 5 |
North Carolina
|
Good incoming recruiting class for the Tar Heels. |
| 6 |
Louisville
|
Kept some talent from last year, gained some for this year. |
| 7 |
Kansas
|
Obligatory top ten Kansas rating. But seriously, they've lost a lot and gained a little. Still, they've got a good lineup this season. |
| 8 |
Texas
|
They've retained a lot of the scoring from last year, and even added some good recruits. |
| 9 |
Florida
|
A lot of talent left last after last season, but fortunately for the Gators, they've been able to pick up a few good recruits. |
| 10 |
Wichita State
|
What a season they had last year, right? And positively, they kept some scoring. Recruiting was a little lackluster, though. |
| 11 |
Virginia
|
They lost a lot of scoring and weren't able to add a whole lot, either. |
| 12 |
Villanova
|
Kept most scoring and added some recruits. |
| 13 |
Iowa State
|
They may have lost some major talent, they've definitely kept some dynamic scores as well. |
| 14 |
VCU
|
Some leaders returned, plus some good recruits as well. |
| 15 |
Gonzaga
|
This season should be more fun for the Zags, shouldn't it?! They don't have the strongest of recruiting classes, but maybe it'll do the job. |
| 16 |
UConn
|
Uconn has lost a lot of the magic from last season. They also didn't recruit so well. However, they kept enough to be a fun team to watch. |
| 17 |
San Diego State
|
The Aztecs return with some talent from last season's team. They also added a couple of good recruits. |
| 18 |
Oklahoma
|
Oklahoma kept some major players and added some good recruits to the mix for this season. |
| 19 |
Michigan State
|
Michigan State lost a lot of their scoring and rebounding after last season. They added some recruits, but you can't replace Harris easily. |
| 20 |
Nebraska
|
Nebrasketball in the top twenty! Woohoo! It probably helps considering that they returned their top scorers and added some recruits. |
| 21 |
Ohio State
|
He finally left? Aaron Craft is gone? Now that he and Ross are gone, the team will be useless! Except for that amazing recruiting class... |
| 22 |
Michigan
|
Michigan lost an awful lot of talent, but they were able to add some (I'm sure they all miss Stauskas). |
| 23 |
Iowa
|
Iowa kept some of their top scores from last season and kept a lot of their rebounding. Recruiting wasn't as good as it could have been. |
| 24 |
Stanford
|
The Cardinal kept a lot of their top players from last year. They were also able to grab a few top recruits as well. |
| 25 |
SMU
|
SMU sneaks in because Nic Moore is still around. Well, so is Markus Kennedy. |
