Yeah, UL at 3 is laughable.

Yeah, UL at 3 is laughable.

Why? They should be pretty good.

If it came down to Zona and Dook in the final game, I know who I wouldn't be rooting for.

UofL will have a good team but I just don't see them as the 3rd best. Top 10, maybe but not 3rd.

If these rankings are pre Bagley, having Duke in the top 5 is absurd and I bet k would agree. He knew he wasn't winning anything with what he had and had to add an elite player.

Their backcourt has too many questions imo. Isn't Snider, Perry, and McMahon all they have? Their offense should be ok but their press won't be nearly as effective if they have King, Bowen or Adel playing the two. Louisville does have a talented team, they're going to miss Mitchell though.

Good, but not #3 good.
Who on their squad is good enough to have them ranked that high?

That's what I'm saying, it's a guard's game, if you don't have elite guards, which they don't, you ain't top 5.
Plus, under Pitino, when have they been anything but a defensive oriented team? They always seem to struggle on offense under him.
