Somewhere between 10-15.
i think you guys have this guy way overrated. Shure he can shoot, but he doesn't guard anybody, doesn't rebound, and never passes the ball. I hope he has learned how to do all these things this summer, but i doubt it. He is a shooter if he is wide open and that is all that he brings to the table. It is nice if he hits 4 3pointers a game, but if the guy he is supposed to be guarding scores 25 he is not going to help that much. Moreno, and those 2 guards will be the heart of next year's team, not this guy. By the wat that back up center from Washington is much better than most of you think.

16-19. I'd say 17, if I had to pick a number. But I like this roster with Mom and it's not where ya start...but where ya finish. Tough schedule and all, I'd guess we finish top 10.
This roster has the POTENTIAL to be Pope's best and only healthy one so far.
If ya believe in odds much, I'd say we'll be the healthiest team in the country!

I am certain we will not be in the top 25 preseason. I want this squad to be good so badly, but realistically don’t think this is a roster of Kentucky caliber players.
i don’t feel like addressing your whole comment but I will say to state that the players we have right now are 1000% Kentucky starting caliber players

hell Zoom would’ve been starting in 23-24 had Cal been able to recruit him better

I’d say Wilkins as of right now is upper top 10 best sg/pg at kentucky in past 7-8 years

and I’d take Moreno over like 90% of the Centers of past 5-7 years

They'll probably rank us 14 or so. Realistically I think 20 is about right.

So reading this thread most agree we are a sweet level team with mom. For what we are supposedly paying seems like pope could do better.

18–23 but I feel I’m being a bit generous at the top end. People are way underestimating the difference between what talking heads are willing to say in May about the most click-driving teams and how A.P. and coaches’ poll contributors will be willing to vote in November.
