NET rankings released 1-29

Could crack top 5 with a couple dubs this week.

Yep, what an opportunity tonight. No idea what to expect after last game that was almost a week ago.
That’s the worst part. My confidence is pretty low, good thing that doesn’t matter. This would be the “signature” road win we may need to stay on the top 2 lines down the road.

Mine is as well, if JoBo comes out aggressively early and hitting open 3's then I'll definitely feel a lot better. I assume CJ is out so others need to step up, Garza can't keep doing it all.

I haven't seen Drake play this year, but liked what Devries had them doing last year. Anyone seen them play? They for real or just beating up on Valley teams (I do know they beat K-State, but the Cats are pretty bad this year).

I've seen them a few times, they are legit, they can win games in the tourney for sure. Lots of new pieces from transfers and roster reconstruction DeVries has to do every year. I hope he stays there, he can really build that program up to something special.

I watch them often. They have the pieces to really cause fits in tournament play because they have multiple weapons and play a pretty uptempo style.

They don’t have the size to run through a gauntlet conference like the B1G but they’d probably be 8-10th here.

One thing DeVries has done that no other Drake coach has done, even the Davis’s, is greatly improved the overall athleticism of the recruits they bring in.
 
Net of 5? Taking off gold colored glasses for a sec, who have we beaten to justify that?
I think it's the road wins and UNC win turning into something nice and playing Gonzaga on a neutral court that is doing it and the BIG being vastly superior metrics wise every win in league is a boost.
