"Virginia

Top team in state: Virginia Cavaliers

The rest:
2. Richmond
3. Virginia Tech
4. vcu
5. Liberty
6. George Mason
7. Old Dominion
8. William & Mary
9. Norfolk State
10. VMI
11. James Madison
12. Radford
13. Hampton
14. Longwood
State of the state: The Wahoos are again, by far, the best team in the Commonwealth of Virginia. If all goes well, we'll be watching Tony Bennett's team open the season at Mohegan Sun this week. Beyond that, some credit to Richmond is in order. Chris Mooney could have the best team in the Atlantic 10 -- and the A-10 will be of high quality this season."

Wow, behind Liberty. I understand that polls are subjective,,,, but wow. Nice to see that DP has taken us not so far in such a long time. We'll see what happens if/when games are played but it's sad to see what little respect we have earned under DP. Hopefully we win it all, realistically, probably won't. I guess Brad is happy with having good kids on campus. Winning? Hmm. Not so much.

Liberty has been spending piles of cash lately on their sports and they went 30-4 last season.

vcu being 4th is interesting. We will see how good they actually are this season.

the list is trash.... no way JMU is that much lower than William and Mary this year... Dane might be having a very rough year there

Surprised a bit at the list but obviously a bit subjective.

It makes sense that Mason is where they are, although I suspect they are giving courtesy to vcu still even though they were very mediocre last year with what was expected to be a league contender. Hopefully Mason can improve and vcu can be ranked in the traditional Fordham position.

We likely won’t get to prove it on the court, but I think we’re gonna be better than Tech. And if there’s ever a season we can sweep vcu it’s this one. Zero excuses for underachieving with a team that finally has experience, depth and athleticism ... time to put up or shut up.

I may have read Jim differently than you sleeper. He basically just said DP has no excuses left. It’s produce or see your way out. Something I think we can all get behind. I also think we should sweep vcu.

Hot take, but I’m here for it. I don’t really agree but I’m still pissed that whoever wrote that article believes that Liberty is honestly better than us. I wish we’d scheduled them this year now so we could beat the Jesus out of them. There’s no way even with the most resources in the world top tier athletes want to go to f**king Liberty university to play basketball. If fairfax has no social scene, Liberty has a negative social scene.

Assuming we have a reasonable semblance of a season, there are no excuses. It’s time to finally see some high-level basketball from this program.

He said we are going to be better than a team full of 4 stars in tech. His second part I agree with.
