    Interesting how one has ORU with most of the Summit first team on their roster yet Lindy's only has them at 3rd.

    This years Bball team is a bit like the football team with new coaches yet ones who have been part of the success here, and some really good returning players. I think the Bison could surprise

    I think IPFW is way to high in both of these preseason polls. They wont be near as good as they were this past season. They lost a lot of key players including there head coach and Steve Forbes won't come out of nowhere.

    My expectations are pretty low for this season, and I would love to be surprised. I think we're really going to miss Marshall Bjorklund. Could we win the Summit? Yes. Could we win an NCAA tournament game? No.

    How low?

    I still think we finish in the top half of the summit with another shot at an NCAA berth. As far as winning a tourney game, its all about matchups. If we get the right matchup we could pull another win out.

    4th or 5th, and bow out in the first or second round of the Summit Tournament.
