ESPN has just published Creme's "Way Too Early Top 25"  (on the heels of his brackatology yesterday). Pretty much mirrors the bracketology. Stanford is #2, but after that, next PAC-12 is way down, to Arizona at 18 and Oregon at 20.  Cites Jones and Brink as pre-season All Americans and possibly two of the top 5 players in the country.  Looking at this list, Stanford's non-conference schedule is looking more and more challenging.

I just have this gut-feel that Vic SCHAEFER will engineer this assembly of: 

1) highly accomplished experienced transfers: 
-  5'10 SG/PG Shaylee GONZALES (from BYU, two-time WCC POY and 2nd Team AA) 
-  5'10 SG Sonya MORRIS (from DePaul, two-time Big East 1st Team) 
-  6'4 PF/C Taylor JONES (from Oregon State, All-PAC 12)

2)  high-impact returning incoming sophomores and juniors:
-  5'6 PG Rory HARMON
-  6'1 PF Aaliyah MOORE
-  6'2 PF Deyona GASTON
-  6'0 SG Shay HOLLE

3) incoming Top 60+ freshmen:
- 6'1 SF Njakalenga MWENENTANDA 
- 6'4 C Amina MUHAMMAD
- 6'1 SG Jordana CODIO 

into a well-oiled machine come NCAA tournament time,
and end up in the NCAA championship game,
just as he did with his overperforming Mississippi State
squads in 2017 and 2018
