Week 2 Rankings

Texas just beat UCLA @ Pauley Pavilion</p>

I must seriously re-evaluate my rankings. I didn't really like Texas coming in, but their backcourt is money and Damion James could be a breakout player this year if they keep him on the wing rather than banging up front.</p>

I may be in love with Vandy - love Shan Foster, love that little 1 who just seems to make plays even though he seems hyper at times. Ross Neltner is Brian Butch, but without the expectations that make Butch a bust. Obviously I missed something here - I thought JP Prince was going to Nashville - what happened there? Anyways, Vandy has it all. Foster can stroke it or put it on the floor - he's a complete offensive player who can put the team on his back. Ogilvy may be the most underrated factor - a true low-post threat that, assuming he keeps playing well, will draw attention from the opposing team's best big, and that makes Neltner even better - I want to see him take it in the paint and score the tough points a bit more. The two guys I really like most on this team? A pair of backups - Jermaine Beal is a do everything guard with the size and strength to battle just about anyone they want to match him up against, and Keegan Bell, likely the 1 of the future, though Beal could force him to come off the bench. Bell probably could play for any other team in the country, and has the pass-first, defensive mentality that I love in a point guard. This team wasn't a flash in the pan last year - Kevin Stallings has proven that when he has legit talent, he has the preperation and the guile to put a winning team on the floor in a conference that sees almost all the top recruits go elsewhere.</p>
