Big East standing 2013 - who jumps in 2014? who falls?

[aughnanure]

1. Marquette- Gardner and Wilson will be very good, also a loaded recruitnig class
2. Creighton- McDermott, best player in the nation imo, Gibbs coming back is huge, Wragge is a great shooter, new JUCO guards to score
3. St.Johns- So athletic it's scary. If consistent outside shooting comes around..watch out
4. Georgetown- Losing Whittington hurts, but talented backcourt with Starks and Smith-Rivera
5. Villanova- Ryan Arcidiacono can fill it up, need an inside scorer
6. Providence- I honestly don't know where to put them, I think 6 is the lowest they could go, could go as high as 2. Lots of talent as well
7. Xavier- Christian will be great next year
8. Butler- Brad Stevens will have his team ready to compete, but finishing 8th in this league next year is not horrible.
9. Seton Hall- Edwin will carry them, Gene Teague could be a factor
10. DePaul- I honestly have no idea what they have coming back..

Not to burst your bubble, but Andrew Wiggins will be the best player in the country next year. And it really won't be close.

Best athlete, probably true, not sure if I would crown him best player just yet.

You will. McDermott is great and all but if I get to draft my team next year I'm starting with Wiggins and Wiggins only. And honestly, probably half of Kentucky's recruiting class too. Next year's draft is likely the best since 2003.

I never said McDermott was the best NBA draft prospect, cause he's not. Probably not even top 15. I said, in my opinion he's the best COLLEGE player in the country, along with Marcus Smart. Wiggins in an unreal athlete and prospect, but, until I see him play in a college game against a worthy opponent, I'm going to stick with McDermott and Smart. Wiggins may very well end up being the best, but I've never believed in saying an incoming freshmen is the best player in the country when he's never played a second of college ball.

Marquette and Creighton will be favored but I'm worried about Georgetown and St Johns too. I think DePaul and Seton Hall along with Butler now probably bring up the rear.

I think Georgetown will win the league even without Porter. If DePaul finishes anywhere other than 10th, that would be considered a major jump in my book.

[Burrito]

Georgetown will have a nice backourt and should be fine at the center position. But with Porter heading to the NBA and Whittington injured, the forward spots are a big question mark. Lubick (Sr), Hopkins(Jr), Domingo (So) and Cameron (Fr) were all rated 4 stars in High school. One or two of those guys are going to have to step it up.
