Every time I've watched Syracuse this year, I've subconsciously associated our top 5 ranking with us being overrated at this point in this season. But then once I really think about it, I can't think of many teams that have been better so far. Thus, corroborating our ranking.
And to me, this is astonishing considering our team consists of:
-A freshman point guard
-Stable of mediocre big men (potential aside)
-A returning two guard who could barely hit the side of a barn last year
That's 3/5 positions that were legit question marks at the start of the season.
And to all of this I say...ISN'T COLLEGE BASKETBALL GREAT?!
I love that we as Syracuse fans can watch our teams and players grow before our eyes. Yes, a team of one-and-dones ala Kentucky and Kansas can win a bunch of games, but the way our teams have been built lately with 2-4 year players has been a joy to watch.
Hopefully we remain in this position throughout the year and for years to come!
