Who's Who: UNC, Louisvile, Connecticut, Pittsburgh.
Young Guns: Samardo Samuels (Louisville), Greg Monroe (Georgetown), Jrue Holiday/Malcolm Lee (UCLA), Brandon Jenning (Europe), Tyreke Evans (Memphis), B.J. Mullens (Ohio State), Demar DeRozan (USC).
Notes: UNC is considered far and away the best team, possibly one of the best teams ever, I'm of the opinion that Connecticut is damn close, and Louisville can hang with them, maybe Pittsburgh. Down year for the Pac-10 after dominating last year. Big East is dominant with 7 preseason Top 25 teams, headlined by Connecticut at 2, Louisville at 3 and Pittsburgh at 5. Duke has been off to their typical hot start, Oklahoma looks even better than expected.
Biggest upset: Michigan over UCLA.
