Here are the power rankings broken down by all of the ESPN voters. For those curious, the lowest ranking was 8, by Rece Davis. Times are good when we can potentially bitch that someone "only" ranked us 8th.

Tough to take the analysis seriously when they talk about melo ADDING 30 pounds and joseph in tha BACKCOURT.

Dammit, Dana O'Neil

Yea she is regularly off.

Here she calls for "more Southerland, Carter-Williams, and Jones," and "less Joseph, Jardine and Triche" taking threes.

I mean, damn, I'm a casual basketball fan and I could name the starting 5 for the top 5 teams, it's her JOB to know this and she's half clueless... Does she realize how hard it is to put on 30 pounds of muscle in a few months? Possible, but MUCH MUCH easier to drop 30 pounds when you're a 20 year old athlete

I'll give her the benefit of the doubt on the 30 lbs, and chalk it up to a typo.

But for someone who covers Big East basketball, it is absurd for her to write that one of Big East's flagship programs needs to get more perimeter shooting from their 11th and 12th men, when we have had a 8.5 man rotation for the past 10,000 days or so.

Jay Williams liking the cuse. Dana O'Neil is routinely very positive about Syracuse to the point where I would say she likes the Cuse. However she also reacted like a dumped girlfriend about the ACC move.
