That’s what I meant, and I appreciate you posting them. Didn’t want to come across as worked up about Iowa’s spot, just making an observation.Well, the polls right now are irrelevant in March. As of this point in time, relevant.
I mean they have Bol Bol, of course they are better than Iowa.The polls are irrelevant right now, but it’s funny seeing Oregon ranked two spots ahead of Iowa

Absolutely. As myteam better put it, I meant that, this early in the year, polls are irrelevant as they pertain to what things will look like at the end of the year...Disagree. The polls are always relevant. Would you rather the Hawks be unranked right now and getting no national pub or national media attention? I personally would rather see Iowa always have a little number next to them, always on Sportscenter, and generally talked about. It's great for the program, and great for recruiting.
While I really don't care about polls this time of year, I recognize the branding and marketing relevance. Particularly to the less involved fans or those that don't follow the B1G teams closely. More so for recruits.
Here is a perfect example of the politics of the coaches polls. There is no way Oregon should be ahead of Iowa when we just beat them on a neutral court and by a wide margin. Polls should not be about potential, but about results. Here is an example of coaches looking at recruiting rankings, Iowa's recent history, and not the results of the most recent games. Especially after beating Oregon, then a 19 point victory over UConn. This is why I trust the AP poll before I trust the coaches poll.
Very nice entry into the polls for a squad with new found success. Keep taking a tough minded approach on the defensive end and things should fall into place nicely this season.

9 Big Ten teams in the top 28.
boy you really do nothing about Fran. from 2013 thru 16 the adj defensive ranking 33rd at best and 75th at its worst. please crawl back into whatever hole you crawled out of.Not bad for a team that has been "playing just like last year" and has a coach that has "never coached defense before".
