Miami: AP Top 25!

Looking at the last 5 of last week’s AP Top 25, I could see Seton Hall (lost 2), Tennessee (lost to Ky), USU (went 1-1), and maybe UGA (went 1-1) possibly dropping out or below us. But since we were 29th last week, we would also have to jump some of the other teams also receiving votes in the 26-28th spots.

Rothstein finally put Miami in his top 45.

Number 45

I used to think Rothstein was endearing as college basketball’s rain man…but hes just a shill for the P4 and high majors

Saw two pundits’ predictions on the AP top 25 to be released this afternoon. One had us at #23 and the other just outside at #26.

It happened!

Today Miami made their debut in ESPN’s top 25 Power poll. Despite noting our weak SOS, the blurb did a nice job of crediting us for beating good MAC rivals on the road as well as Akron at home, and thus deserving of our inclusion in their ranking.
