| | | KENTUCKY: The preseason No. 1 team in the nation, Kentucky is undoubtedly the most talented team in the country, but last season showed that talent doesn't mean everything as they missed the NCAA Tournament and lost in the first round of the NIT to Robert Morris. Gone from that Wildcats team are key players such as Nerlens Noel, Archie Goodwin and Kyle Wiltjer, but John Calipari brings in arguably the best recruiting class in the history of the game with five top-10 recruits. Headlining the class is PF Julius Randle, who may immediately become the best post scorer in the nation. He'll be joined down low by fellow freshman Dakari Johnson, with future first-round C Willie Cauley-Stein (8.3 PPG, 62% FG, 6.2 RPG) bringing an uncanny athleticism on the block. The top returning scorer is SF Alex Poythress (11.2 PPG, 6.0 RPG), who has one of the most athletic frames in the game. In the backcourt, rounding out the legendary recruiting class are twin guards Andrew and Aaron Harrison, with SF James Young slotting in behind Poythress. And don't forget about PF Marcus Lee, though he's more or a project and will have to compete for minutes in his first season. There's no questioning the talent in Lexington this season, but the questions arise about whether this team will be able to bring together a collection of fresh faces to live up to its hype. | | LSU: The Tigers weren't particularly good last season, but they bring back most of their players, including four double-digit scorers, and a top-five recruiting class in the nation. Charles Carmouche is the biggest departure, but PF Johnny O'Bryant III (13.6 PPG, 8.7 RPG) was the team's top scorer and would be even better if he could curb his 3.2 turnovers per game. Also back are PG Anthony Hickey (11.2 PPG, 3.8 APG, 3.5 RPG), SF Shavon Coleman (10.5 PPG, 5.9 RPG) and sharpshooting SG Andre Stringer (10.4 PPG, 41% 3-pt FG), who should all be able to improve on their performances from last season. The key will be integrating this talented freshman class headlined by PF Jarell Martin, a Baton Rouge native. Joining him down low will be fellow first-year player SF Jordan Mickey, while PG Tim Quarterman should soften the blow of Carmouche's departure. |
