That is preposterous! Colgate, Central Florida and a host of other nobodies way ahead of us? Cmon

We have not played well so it makes sense.

If Colgate, Central Florida and a host of others played the same teams we did and had similar results (not impressive) they'd be ranked right where we are.

until we prove otherwise, any complaint about our ranking is preposterous.

I honestly hope youre just kidding.

7 votes for RU in the AP top 25 poll. I'll go with poll over this site.

Based on how RU has looked this far , it’s not that far fetched.

I don't really care. Maybe it will light a fire under our guys. We need to get things right and we will move up to respectability.

Two games into the season. Don’t care. These sites are a joke at this point.

Fair point

I was surprised to see SHU 9th and Pen St shouldn’t be 44 spots ahead of RU

how bad is Penn State that they are only 3.5 favorites over UMass, a team whose best player transferred to Texas

UMass Arena half empty. We are very lucky at RU, poor play so far aside

I read the Umass AD promised to giveaway expenses paid trip if they hit a certain headcount of students

When they built that place, the sky was the limit, then sanctions hit.

Calipari?

Calipari?

Yup. They were a final four team - at the Meadowlands of all places!

 

[toby83]

They are dismantling Penn State

Umass crushing Pen St

Yale beat Umass by 20

Seton Hall beat Yale by 36

Seton Hall is 81 points better than Penn St. It's the only logical conclusion.

 

[Joey Bags]

That's a dumbass ranking, we're 39th in the AP Poll, that's what matters.

 

[greenknight]

At least 1st 3 games none of our opponents ranked in the 300"s. We squeak by or lose to NJIT and we are in trouble

Yep. More parity in college basketball than ever before. Kids are going where
they know they will play

Nothing impossible

Correct, nothing impossible - NJIT beat Lehigh by 17 at Lehigh.

The great equalizer is there are AAU programs starting up all over the place everyday. If your an athlete or have court awareness you will get better. More kids are in the gyms training
