I'm sure we have the talent to finish that high... if we stay healthy.

Seems like a favorable ranking to me?

If our freshman play not as freshman then I don't see who below us I would put ahead of us.

Feels about right with the talent they have returning and brought in. Hard to see the conference having more than 4 Tournament teams this year so Oregon will need to probably finish non-con with less than 3 losses to have a chance.

I would swap USC and Colorado. Colorado has a good squad this year and USC is young.


For Oregon, it really depends to me on Bittle, Barthelemy, and Couisnard taking the next steps.

Dante is going to be Dante, but those other 3 all have to be consistent players as returnees. We can't have Couisnard scoring 27 and 21 one weekend and going for 5 and 7 the next time weekend.

The transfers and freshman are all going to take time and can help, but ultimately development of guys on the roster is key. (Not a bad Kwame Evans fan, but maybe he can prove me wrong). (Love Shelstad, but even he will take time).
