While many of you are immersed in football there’s a large number of fans who can’t wait for the return of college basketball. The countdown is on and we thought it might be a good time to invite Tristan Freeman of Busting Brackets on to talk hoops. We get into their preseason Top 25 Power Rankings by looking at the Way-Too-Early version from April and the latest released in September. It gives us a good look at the impact of the transfer portal, both good and bad and how some of the ‘COVID Seniors’ impact teams as well. Freeman goes through the top 5 teams for us by looking at personnel.

That’s not all though. We get his thoughts on how the transfer portal is improving the game and how NIL may help keep players around longer.

Then it’s time for a look at the top teams in the ACC. Why Virginia Tech and Louisville were part of the earlier rankings but aren’t any longer. What moved Virginia into the Honorable Mention category? Some thoughts on coaches, players and what the future holds.

Don’t forget to feed the kitty so the guys won’t have to walk uphill both ways through blizzards this Winter. It’s very much appreciated!
