The SEC voted an incoming UK Freshman as pre-season SEC Player of the year. Coach Cal has another group of one and done players who everyone thinks will be very good.

I still think a player should pick college or pro when they come out of high school. If they pick college they should play 3 years or when they are 21 before entering the NBA draft. Just like football.

The one and done is ruining college basketball IMO.

I think Kentucky started the season #1 last year too?

According to ESPN last year UK was preseaon # 3 in both polls behing Indiana and Louisville. No. 3 is still very high for unproven players even if they are all 5 stars.

That is insane. I had not heard that. This is so ridiculous. The same thing is happening at Kansas with a new recruit named Andrew Wiggins. There are stories he might get a bigger deal than LeBron in a year.
