A loss away @ NET #16 UVA, even by this much, only pushes us down a few spots to #74.
As I stated previously - finishing even in the same stratosphere of last year's team (#80), considering the significant net talent drain,* would be miracle work.
*Beyond last year's "big three," I don't think folks realize Derin Saran - who rode pine for us - has started every game for NET #125 UC Irvine and leads them in minutes, assists, and steals while second in points and rebounds. Meanwhile, we have 2 shooting guards redshirting.
