Top 40 Rankings
November 13, 2017

1) MICHIGAN STATE...We?re sure that Tom Izzo hasn?t forgotten how to coach. And things might be breaking in the Spartans? direction for the first time in a couple of years. Recent Big Ten challengers Wisconsin, Purdue, Indiana, and Ohio State (the latter two with new coaches) might be taking a step back this season. But Izzo received his early Christmas present in spring when touted 6-7 soph wing Miles Bridges (17 ppg LY) opted out of the NBA draft to return to East Lansing for a second season as a prime Wooden Award candidate. Izzo thus loses only two contributors from last year?s 20-win team that scrapped its way to another Big Dance invite. The Spartans should also have an old-fashioned, punishing Big Ten look on the blocks with 6-9 Gavin Schilling having returned from last year?s knee injury, bullish 6-8 soph Nick Ward a year older and wiser, and the jewel of Izzo?s recruiting class, 6-11 Jaren Jackson, Jr. likely to make an immediate impact in the post.

2) DUKE...Never far from the title discussion, Coach K might have another of his teams like the 2010 & 2015 national title winners that were there to pick up the pieces when various other power programs slipped. Of course, they?re even more hated than usual in the ACC with G Grayson Allen, the last holdover from the 2015 title team, remaining in the fold. Allen?s 2016-17 had more ups and downs than a rollercoaster, with hamstring and ankle injuries and more controversies than Trump?s tweets due to on-court antics. But Duke has a lot more than Allen, including a major league haul of frosh led by 6-11 Marvin Bagley III, who has so much ballyhoo that Duke will un-retire Danny Ferry?s #35 and give it to Bagley (with Ferry?s blessing). Although, admittedly, some of Coach K?s other diaper dandies, including hotshot PG Trevon Duval, have eligibility issues on the eve of the season. If Allen stays out of trouble and Bagley is as good as advertised, however, Duke might again get back to the Final Four after not escaping the sub-regionals last March.

3) WICHITA STATE...The Shockers have bid adieu to the Missouri Valley and begin residence in the American, which should remove some of the annual bubble angst brought about lately by strength of schedule. Wichita should also not have to worry about being underseeded as a 10 like a year ago (though the cluelessness of the Selection Committee can never be underestimated). With star soph PG Landry Shamet having recovered from a summer foot fracture, all of the pieces remain in place, with Shamet surrounded by accomplished upperclassmen such as 6-8 Markis McDuffie, punishing 6-8, 279-lb. C Shaq Morris, and sr. sharpshooting G Connor Frankamp, a former Kansas transfer. Best of all, HC Gregg Marshall again resisted significant overtures from elsewhere (including one from Indiana) to stay in place at Koch Arena, where it looks as if he plans to stay for a long while.

4) ARIZONA...This might be the year when HC Sean Miller finally gets the Wildcats to the Final Four. Though Lauri Markkanen and Kobi Simmons bolted after just one season, 6-5 soph G Rawle Alkins remains from last year?s recruiting bonanza and joins explosive 6-5 jr. Allonzo Trier (17 ppg) on the perimeter. But it?s 7-1 frosh DeAndre Ayton, regarded by some as the nation?s top recruit, who has them really salivating at the McKale Center, where a ?Twin Towers? look with 7-0 sr. Duran Nistic figures to be featured this winter. If there are questions, it?s with the wherewithal of 5-11 sr. PG Parker Jackson-Cartwright, and how the indictment of asst. coach Book Richardson in the hoops corruption scandal might prove a distraction.

5) KANSAS...Never lurking far from the Final Four, Bill Self?s Jayhawks are on the cusp of an astounding 14th straight Big 12 regular-season title (all the more amazing since the Big 12 is no chump league). Self lost some key cogs in sr. G Frank Mason III and NBA first-round pick F Josh Jackson, but as usual has some blue-chippers to plug in their places. In particular, watch 6-10 frosh Billy ?Outa-Space? Preston (oh, we?re gonna? have some fun with that name this winter!), who could hold the key to a rebuilt frontcourt. The perimeter looks loaded as usual, with sr. PG Devonte Graham (13.4 ppg) back to run the show and joined by touted Mississippi State transfer Malik Newman, a combo G who was a McDonald?s All-American a couple of years ago before leaving Starkville, while another ballyhooed frosh, 6-5 Marcus Garrett, is going to be hard to keep off of the floor. Rock, Chalk Jayhawk once again, with feeling, this winter at the Phog.

6) KENTUCKY...John Calipari?s task is the same as it has been for several seasons; replace a mass exodus of talent, and develop coherence from a mass import of new talent. Yearly. But before another rinse, wash, rinse cycle at Rupp Arena, consider that not all of Coach Cal?s one-and-done editions are created equal. For example, the 2015-16 team lost nine games and didn?t make it out of the sub-regionals. And back in 2013, the Nerlens Noel team could only get to the NIT, where it lost off the bat to Robert Morris (when Noel was injured). The new names for this year are F Kevin Knox, PF P.J. Washington, PG Quade Green, and SG Hamidou Diallo, the latter not an altogether new name after enrolling for the second semester last season but not activated, then pulling his name out of the NBA draft. If there is a difference in composition of the new Calipari roster, it?s an abundance of big, versatile forwards, not just traditional guard/big man lineups.

7) SOUTHERN CAL...No, this isn?t a leftover from our preseason football rankings. SC has a real chance at its first Final Four since 1954 thanks to a slew of key players who resisted the temptation to jump early into the NBA draft. The versatile 6-10 Bennie Boatwright and 6-11 intimidator Chimezie Metu both could have been sitting on NBA benches this season but instead again anchor one of the most scary-looking frontlines in college hoops, while explosive 6-5 wing Elijah Stewart (12.3 ppg LY) also pulled his name late out of the draft. With go-go sr. PG Jordan McLaughlin (13 ppg & 5.5 apg) still pulling the strings, HC Andy Enfield has an enviable combination of high-level, combustible talent and experience, the latter something many frosh-dominated powerhouses cannot replicate. Then Enfield located depth in the primary (frosh wing Chuck O?Bannon, son of former UCLA star Charles O?Bannon) and secondary (Duke transfer G Derryck Thornton) talent markets. Anything less than a Sweet 16 would be a disappointment for the Trojans.

8) XAVIER...Fans of the ?X? were holding their breath a couple of times in the offseason after job openings at Indiana and Ohio State were filled by Dayton?s Archie Miller and Butler?s Chris Holtmann, respectively...and not Musketeer HC Chris Mack, who was rumored on both the Hoosier and Buckeye radar. Instead Mack returns for an encore after steering the 11th-seeded X to an unexpected West Regional final that no one saw coming, especially after star wing Edmond Sumner went down with an ACL injury in late January. Sumner subsequently declared for the NBA draft and was taken by the Pacers, but the senior backcourt duo of Trevon Bluiett (18.5 ppg; nursing a shoulder injury in preseason not deemed to be serious) and J.P, Macura (14.4 ppg) returns, while sophs PG Quentin Goodin and 6-9 PF Tyrique Jones will play larger roles after emerging late last season. A key addition will be 6-10 Green Bay transfer Kerem Kanter, brother of Enes and a Euro-style big who can shoot from the perimeter but also provide some protection at the rim that the Muskies missed last season.

9) FLORIDA... Michael White?s second season in Gainesville was an unqualified success, as the Gators caught fire in March and made it all the way to the Elite Eight before bowing in a tense all-SEC East Regional final against South Carolina. The run was unexpected after most gave up on Florida in mid-February following the ACL injury suffered by C John Egbunu. Egbunu returns, though might not be ready to play until after the holidays. Still, Florida will be just fine, with leading scorers G KeVaughn Allen and PG Chris Chiozza (bothered by a shin injury in preseason not deemed serious) still in the fold. The Gators should again be bombing away from beyond the arc, especially with the addition of Rice grad transfer 6-5 Egor Koulechov, who hit better than 47% of his triples for the Owls last term.

10) CINCINNATI...With a bit more competition in the American provided by Wichita State, the Bearcats might be able to sharpen their claws and get a bit more national respect than a year ago when they never cracked the top ten, even when bolting to a 21-2 record. Now, Mick ?The Ghost? Cronin has his top three scorers back from a 30-win team that reached the second round of the Dance, led by no?nonsense 6-8 F Gary Clark, a complete player who does everything well save perhaps shoot 3-pointers. Forwards Jacob Evans and Kyle Washington are flashier, but it?s Clark who is the heart-and-soul of the Cincy operation. An interesting newcomer is jr. lefty PG Cane Broome, a transfer from Sacred Heart who was the Northeast MVP in 2015-16 when scoring better than 23 ppg. If Broome comes anything close to that sort of production, this might be Cronin?s best team. One note of interest for the Bearcats is that they will be playing home games across the Ohio River at Northern Kentucky this season as Fifth Third Arena undergoes renovation.

11) WEST VIRGINIA...Bob Huggins reached another Sweet 16 last season and returns his top three scorers, including sr. PG Jevon Carter, a Big 12 MVP candidate. Again, nobody will want to face the Mountaineers, who lead the nation with 740 forced turnovers from the high-pressure defense, though Huggins must replace 35 ppg from last year?s squad. Huggins is hoping that 6-5 frosh wing Teddy Allen can become a designated scorer while he learns the nuances of Huggins? press and never-stop defense.

12) VILLANOVA... Though everyone recalls how Nova made a dramatic run to the national title in 2016, keep in mind that Jay Wright?s Cats have also flopped an awful lot lately in the Big Dance and often failed to get out of the sub-regionals, as was the case again last season when Wisconsin dealt the KO in the second round. But Wright does have three consecutive 30-win seasons and a veteran core led by jrs. G Jalen Brunson and wing Mikal Bridges. Keep an eye on 6-9 RS frosh Omari Spellman, who brings more offense than usual to a Wright frontline.

13) NORTH CAROLINA...It?s already been a big 2017 for the Tar Heels, who won yet another national title in April (the third for HC Roy Williams) but then pulled off a bigger surprise by avoiding the hammer from the NCAA in October. Thus, everything else is just gravy for UNC this winter. Roy lost a lot from last season and no way can he replace the massive bulk from last year?s frontline. Plus, sr. PG Joel Berry II was nursing a hand injury in preseason that could keep him out for a while. But 6-6 sr. Theo Pinson and 6-8 jr. Luke Maye (hero of the Elite 8 win over Kentucky) should be able to step into more-featured roles, while 6-8 grad transfer Cameron Johnson from Pitt hit almost 42% of his triples for the Panthers last term and gives the Roy the sort of long-range bomber many of his recent editions have lacked.

14) NOTRE DAME...We admit to having enjoyed watching the Irish as much as any team last season, with HC Mike Brey perfecting a ?small-ball? style featuring the unique talents of versatile 6-6 sr. Bonzie Colson, equally at home battling bigs in the paint or shooting over them from the perimeter. The inside-outside look is complete with sr. G Matt Farrell, a strong distributor who can also score from all over the floor. A newcomer to watch will be 6-5 frosh D.J. Harvey, who does some of the same things as Colson but works more off the dribble.

15) GONZAGA... Unfortunately for Mark Few, his best newcomer might be San Jose State transfer F Brandon Clarke, who has to sit out until the 2018-19 season. At that time, Clarke might be the West Coast Conference?s MVP. But don?t feel too bad for the Zags even though they lost several key cogs from last season?s national runner-up. Two major pieces from a year ago, F Johnathan Williams & G Josh Perkins, are back in the fold, and SG Silas Melton and 6-10 PF Killain Tillie played important roles off of the bench and should be able to seamlessly step into the breach. Meanwhile, RS frosh wing Zach Norvell and touted true frosh PG Jesse Wade (who reminds of former Zag Kevin Pangos) look capable of making early contributions...as do most of Few?s top recruits.

16) LOUISVILLE... We?ll see how the ?Ville copes after scandal wiped out the Rick Pitino era and former Card David Padgett tries to hold the operation together in his interim role this term. As of yet the Cards are not on tourney probation, so a carrot remains, and there is plenty of established contributors still on hand, though replacing the contributions of wing Donovan Mitchell (making a bit of a mark with the Utah Jazz) might be a chore. Expect sr. PG Quentin Snider to assume more of the scoring burden, and the gems of Pitino?s last recruiting class, 6-8 Brian Bowen II and 6-11 Malik Williams, could make immediate contributions.

17) SAINT MARY?S... The Gaels were on the cusp last season, doing more than enough to steer clear of the bubble despite their WCC slate and then pushing Arizona into the final minutes in the second round of the Dance. Along the way, another of Randy Bennett?s Aussie brigade, 6-11 C Jock Landale, progressed to the point that he should be a lottery pick next June. Complementary pieces G Joe Rahon and F Dane Pineau will not be easy to replace, bit most of the roster returns from last year?s 29-5 juggernaut, and has been augmented by grad transfer G Cullen Neal, a sharpshooter on his third school in three seasons after leaving New Mexico (where he played for his dad) and a brief stopover at Ole Miss.

18) MIAMI-FLA... The Canes enter the season on a bit of a slippery slope as they have been on the periphery of the FBI investigation. But Jim Larranaga has some well-established coaching chops and usually steers his teams to the Dance when they have enough talent. Convincing 6-5 soph SG Bruce Brown to hold off at least another year before entering the NBA draft guarantees this Miami edition some star power, and fellow soph PF Dewan Huell, the other gem of last year?s recruiting class, figures to take a significant step up this winter. Lots of hype surrounding true frosh 6-4 G Lonnie Walker, touted to be Miami?s best-ever recruit (and this is a school that once produced Rick Barry!).

19) TEXAS A&M...Though 6-10 star soph PF Robert Williams will miss the first couple of games on suspension, as will touted RS frosh PG JJ Caldwell, they?ll both be playing before December. The fact Williams pulled his name from the NBA draft for another go at College Station should help get Billy Kennedy?s team back to the Big Dance after a one-year hiatus. Williams and 6-10 jr. Tyler Davis form the backbone of one of the SEC?s best frontcourts, and if Caldwell is as good as advertised, Kentucky has something to worry about in the SEC.

20) NORTHWESTERN...No longer do we have to worry about including the Cats along with William & Mary and a few others with forever Big Dance droughts after NU finally qualified a year ago, and beat Vanderbilt once it got into the Madness. Chris Collins, positioning himself nicely to get strong consideration as Coach K?s eventual successor at alma mater Duke, has his top four scorers back from last season, with a vet backcourt featuring difference-makers Bryant McIntosh (15 ppg LY) and Scottie Lindsey (14 ppg). No bubble trouble come March in Evanston.

21) TCU...Pitt?s loss was TCU?s gain as the Frogs found out what it was like to have a legit top-notch coach a year ago when Jamie Dixon steered his alma mater to the NIT crown. TCU won?t sneak up on anybody this season, but all five starters are back led by 6-11 sr. F Vlad Brodziansky, who unnerves opponents when stepping back to fling some 3s, and 6-7 matchup nightmare Kenrich Williams, who won the NIT?s MOP award. Dixon has added a handful of touted four-star recruits to the mix as well. A return to the NIT would be a significant undershoot in March.

22) MINNESOTA...At this time a year ago, HC Richard Pitino was on the hot seat. Now he?s the toast of Minneapolis after steering the Gophers back to the Dance and the only Pitino still involved in coaching (papa Rick is out at the ?Ville). Pitino returns everyone of note from last year?s 24-10 team including four DD scorers led by perimeter weapons sr. Nate Mason (15.2 ppg) and soph Amir Coffey (12.2 ppg). Meanwhile, the frontline will get a big boost of sr. F Davonte Fitzgerald, a onetime Texas A&M transfer whose career has been derailed by knee problems to this point.

23) VIRGINIA...We might regret placing the Cavs this low, as HC Tony Bennett has been one of our favorites for several years. Bennett?s schemes, however, might have squeezed as much as possible out of the Charlottesville talent base when getting to the Elite Eight two years ago, led by G Malcolm Brogdon, who immediately made his mark in the NBA last year with the Bucks. No Brogdon in the current mix, and he was missed last year, too, when the ?Hoos would go on extended scoring droughts and endured an ugly 65-39 beatdown by Florida in the second round of the Dance. Now Bennett needs to replace top two scorers London Perrantes and Marial Shayock, but another sticky defense (UVa led the nation with just 56 ppg allowed) can get Bennett back to the Dance, especially if versatile 6-5 sr. wing Devon Hall (8.4 ppg LY) picks up a bit more of the scoring burden.

24) VIRGINIA TECH...Buzz Williams has put the Hokies back on the hoops map in quick order, getting to the Dance just two years after inheriting a mess in 2014-15, and winning just 11 games in his first try. But as long as 6-6 PF Chris Clarke is recovered from last February?s ACL injury (rehab continues and could keep him out until December), Buzz ought to be able to absorb the losses of top scorers Zach LeDay and Seth Allen, who helped Williams re-establish the program. Another injury casualty from last season, 6-10 C Kerry Blackshear, is being counted on to provide some presence in the paint, but it?s our admiration for Buzz that prompts us to put VPI into the Top 25.

25) PURDUE...Matt Painter has established the Boilermakers as a fixture in the Dance and should have no trouble returning again in March, especially with the Big Ten appearing as if it might be a bit watered-down this season. Star F Caleb Swanigan, as expected, bolted early for the NBA (Blazers first-round pick last June), but remaining in the fold up front are srs. 7-2 C Isaac Haas, who seems to date to the Gene Keady era, and 6-8 F Vince ?Ben Casey? Edwards. Another sr., G Dakota Mathias, is a dangerous dagger-thrower who nailed 45% of his triples last season. But any chance for Painter to get beyond the sub-regionals likely rests with contributions from a touted crop of newcomers led by bullish 6-6 SG Nojel Eastern, who reminds some in the Big Ten of ex-Illinois G Rayvonte Rice.

26) SETON HALL... Once again they?re expecting Big Dance bids at the Hall, which teased for several years but now looks for a third straight NCAA invite for the first time since P.J. Carlesimo?s days in the early ?90s. Credit HC Kevin Willard, who welcomes back three lightning bolts, all with more than 1000 career points?G Khadeen Carrington, F Desi Rodriguez, and C Angel Delgado. Experience and firepower should get the Pirates dancing again in March.

27) RHODE ISLAND...Looking for a gate-crasher from the mid-major ranks? Check out the Rams, who ?made a good fist of it? in the Dance last March and pushed eventual Final Four Oregon in the second round, and return several contributors of note, including star Gs EC Matthews (15 ppg) & Jared Terrell (13 ppg) from a backcourt that returns five guards who averaged at least 18 minutes per game. Replacing workhorse frontliner Hassan Martin will be the first order of business for HC Dan Hurley, who has no shortage of candidates, including 6-8 soph Cyril Langevine, who hinted at being ready for a much larger role with several effective performances down the stretch last season.

28) MICHIGAN...We?ve learned to never underrate a John Beilein-coached team, and the Wolverine chess-master schemed an unlikely Sweet 16 and near Elite Eight out of last year?s edition. Three starters departed, but Beilein gets help this winter from a recently-unexpected source, with ex-Ohio PG Jaaron Simmons, who scored 16 ppg last year for the Bobcats and becomes the first grad transfer in the Beilein era at Ann Arbor, as well 6-6 ex-Kentucky wing Charles Matthews. Beilein?s departures could have been more severe had 6-11 C Mo Wagner (12.1 ppg LY), who has improved by leaps and bounds the past 12 months, not decided to pull his name from the NBA draft.

29) UCLA...The transformational Lonzo Ball has moved across town to the Lakers after helping revive the Bruin program and perhaps saving HC Steve Alford?s job (though Alford?s buyout also precluded Indiana from luring home its native son in late March). The next of the Ball clan, 6-5 frosh LiAngelo, is now in the mix, which means papa LaVar will still show up at Pauley Pavilion. But LiAngelo is no Lavar and now we?re not sure if he?ll even make it back with the team from the opening game in China vs. Georgia Tech after being charged with two other frosh, 6-10 pair Cody Riley and Jalen Hill (who were both expected to contribute) for shoplifting. Tssk, tssk, and stay tuned for further developments. In the meantime, another pair of frosh, 6-3 Jaylen Hands and stringy 6-8 Kris Wilkes, have avoided trouble and could make a quick impact alongside improving 7-0 sr. C Thomas Welsh and 6-1 G Aaron Holiday, who takes Lonzo?s place after pulling his name out of the NBA draft.

30) BAYLOR... Scott Drew has made the Bears a Big Dance regular and don?t envision that changing much in March, especially with do-everything sr. PG Manu Lecomte (among Big 12 leaders in points, assists, and 3-point percentage last term) still pulling the strings out top. How deep Baylor might eventually advance probably depends on if RS frosh, such as 6-4 G Tyson Jolly and 6-5 F Mark Vital, plus former juco 7-footer Leonard Allen, who also redshirted last season, become reliable contributors.

31) BUTLER... The Bulldogs absorbed a punch to the gut in June when Ohio State?s delayed dismissal (forced resignation, or whatever you want to call it) of HC Thad Matta prompted the Buckeyes to snatch away up-and-comer Chris Holtmann, who had re-established the Butler ?brand? in Indy the past few years. We?ll see if Butler alum LaVall Jordan, who almost got Milwaukee to the Dance in his first season with the Panthers, can get the Bulldogs firing on all cylinders. Butler lost some firepower but still retains a pair of All-Big East-caliber talents in sr. F Kelan Martin (16 ppg) and soph G Kamar Badwin (10.1 ppg), a Big East All-Frosh pick last year.

32) GEORGIA...The Bulldogs ought to at least be happy that HC Mark Fox has kept the program out of trouble, no easy feat in this era. But Fox needs to turn some of these 19-win seasons into 24 or 25-win years, and make the Big Dance for the third time in his nine seasons at Athens, to stick around for a tenth year. We say Fox can do it, with 6-8 PF Yante Maten primed to crack 20 ppg, while the arrival of touted 6-8 PF Rayshaun Hammonds to go along with punishing 6-8 jr. Derek Ogbeide gives the Bulldogs a football-look on the frontline. Now, can Fox squeeze some better production from his backcourt, and keep oft-injured 6-4 sr. Juwan Parker healthy?

33) OKLAHOMA...Lon Kruger is too good of a coach for the Sooners to flounder two years in a row. Last year?s drop to 11 wins was not wholly unexpected after the mass exodus of talent, including mercurial G Buddy Hield, from the Final Four team of 2015-16. But Kruger knew his team could benefit long-term from taking some lumps last season and used the campaign to develop youngsters such as Gs Kameron McGusty and Rashard Odomes, and F Kristian Doolittle. Now they have a year of experience and a hotshot McDonald?s All-American frosh PG, Trae Young, with them in the fold. Plus one of the best coaches in the country. Not a bad mix.

34) OREGON...Early departures to the NBA robbed HC Dana Altman of what would have been a legit chance to return to the Final Four. But it?s hardly a bare cupboard at the Matt Arena, with 6-7 frosh Troy Brown rated by many among the nation?s top ten recruits, and another Brown, New Mexico transfer G Elijah (son of NBA coach Mike Brown), perhaps the prized grad transfer in the Pac-12. Meanwhile, soph PG Payton Pritchard emerged as an on-court leader in the Final Four run. The Ducks will look a lot different this winter, but we?ve learned not to underestimate Altman.

35) MIDDLE TENNESSEE...Proving they were no one-year wonders last season, the Blue Raiders not only returned to the big Dance for HC Kermit Davis, they won another game vs. a Big Ten team when whipping Minnesota as a year before after scoring a major 15 vs. 2 upset over Michigan State. Davis has some reloading to do on his frontline and will be hoping for some immediate help from 6-7 grad transfer Nick King, who has already been at Memphis and Alabama on his travels. But the backcourt returns in tact led by all-name sr. bowling ball Giddy Potts (15.2 ppg) and All-Frosh C-USA pick Tyrik Dixon.

36) TEXAS... A little bit of a slow-go for the Longhorns, as ?Shaka Ball? has not ignited in the Big 12 as it did a few years ago at VCU. But after last season?s 11-22 face-plant, many in the region expect Texas to rise again thanks to 6-11, five-star recruit Mo Bamba out of New York City, a possible transformational player (if he stays more than a year). Convincing soph G Andrew Jones (11 ppg LY) to wisely yank his name from last June?s NBA draft will also benefit Shaka, whose frontline has also added 6-9 Tulane transfer Dylan Osetkowski. Smart says the pieces are now in place; they?d better be, because the Texas-exes are getting anxious to see a return on investment in Austin.

37) ALABAMA...It?s been a bit hard for happy-faced HC Avery Johnson to keep smiling in the run-up to the season with 6-8 soph star F Braxton Key, an All-SEC Frosh pick a year ago when scoring 12 ppg, dealing with a knee injury that will keep him out until further notice. Meanwhile, touted frosh PG Collin Sexton, rated by some insiders among the top five recruits in the country, is sidelined for the moment with eligibility issues related to the wide FBI probe. While Sexton?s status remains up in the air, Key, at least, is likely to be back before Christmas, and Johnson?s recruiting class was deeper than Sexton, rated as high as 8th nationally and also featuring hotshot 6-5 SG John Petty.

38) MISSOURI...While some schools made reaches in their coaching hires, Mizzou hit, what looks to us, like a homerun with Cuonzo Martin, who has taken teams to the Big Dance in all of his previous stops. Cuonzo then swung into action quickly by luring a top-five recruiting class led by the touted Porter brothers, much-ballyhooed 6-10 Michael Jr. and 6-11 Jontay (who reclassified to 2017), along with their dad Michael Sr. as an assistant (that?s a good bit of business there by Cuonzo). The Porters, along with other frosh hotshots Gs Blake Harris (a de-commit from Washington) & CJ Roberts, plus Canisius grad transfer Kassius Robertson (16 ppg LY for the Golden Griffs), likely give the Tigers a completely new?and much better?look and a threat to qualify for the Dance after the program spun its wheels for a couple of seasons under well-meaning alum Kim Anderson.

39) NEVADA...Eric Musselman knows how to beat the bushes and in two short years has made the Wolf Pack the big boys in the Mountain West. After a first Big Dance appearance in a decade, Nevada looks like a good bet to return, even after 6-8 F Cam Oliver got some bad advice and was a bit hasty to put his name into the NBA draft, where he was not selected (Cam eventually signed with the Rockets but was released). Fear not for Musselman, however, as he still has prized former Southern Illinois transfer F Jordan Caroline, the non-stop MVP of the MW Tourney, and another load of potential-impact transfers led by ex-Purdue wing Kendall Stephens, ex-Iowa State G Hallice Cooke, ex-St. John?s F Darien Williams, and ex-NC State 6-7 twins Caleb and Cody Martin (the latter dealing with a foot injury in November). Rugged 6-7 sr. PF Elijah Stephens also returns after scoring 12 ppg in the early going last season prior to suspension.

40) UT-ARLINGTON...Looking for a deep sleeper? Try the Movin? Mavs, good enough to win 27 games last season and beat St. Mary?s at Moraga before advancing into the quarterfinals of the NIT. This season UTA might be able to make it to the Dance with 6-9 sr. F Kevin Hervey (17 ppg) poised for a monster year and fellow sr. Erick Neal the Sun Belt?s best PG, still in the fold for underrated HC Scott Cross. Also expect more contributions from sr. G Kaelon Wilson, who flourished as the sixth-man a season ago.

It's probably just coincidence at this point but I seem to be on the opposite side of Dunkel just about every single game.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) Egor Koulechov scored 34 points, hitting six 3-pointers in his Florida debut, to lead the eighth-ranked Gators to a 116-74 victory against Gardner-Webb in the team's season opener Monday night.

Koulechov, a graduate transfer from Rice, broke the school record for most points in a debut. Tom Baxley held the previous mark, scoring 32 points against Rick Barry and Miami in 1962. Florida ended up losing that game after Baxley fouled out in overtime.

Koulechov and the Gators had no issues against Gardner-Webb (0-2). Koulechov added five rebounds and five assists.

DJ Laster led the Runnin' Bulldogs with 19 points and 10 rebounds.

No. 6 WICHITA STATE 81, COLLEGE OF CHARLESTON 63

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) - Senior center Shaquille Morris had 18 points and 10 rebounds in just 22 minutes to lead Wichita State past College of Charleston.

Morris was 7 of 11 from the floor and part of the Shockers (2-0) dominating the interior. Fellow senior post players Rauno Nurger (16 points) and Darral Willis (14 points) found success inside and helped Wichita State to a 44-27 rebounding advantage.

Shockers starting guards Landry Shamet and Conner Frankamp each scored 10 points.

Grant Riller scored 20 points for College of Charleston (1-1).

No. 10 SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA 75, NORTH DAKOTA STATE 65

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Bennie Boatwright scored a career-high 28 points, and Southern California closed the game on a 13-5 run to hold off pesky North Dakota State.

The Trojans (2-0) twice trailed by 10 points in the first half and were down five in the second half before rallying. They struggled at the free throw line, going 17 of 31.

Cameron Hunter scored 24 points to lead the Bison (0-2), which were better in nearly every category. They held the lead for 20 minutes and 10 seconds, but their shooting went cold in the closing minutes and they turned the ball over.

Hunter hit a 3-pointer to cut USC's lead to 70-65 but it was one of just two field goals the Bison made in the final 3:43.

Chimezie Metu added 14 points for USC.

No. 12 CINCINNATI 102, WESTERN CAROLINA 51

HIGHLAND HEIGHTS, Ky. (AP) - Sophomore Jarron Cumberland scored 20 points for the second time in his career, and Cincinnati's full-court pressure forced 22 turnovers as the Bearcats pulled away to a victory over Western Carolina.

Cincinnati (2-0) won its 28th straight home game - a streak that spans two arenas - with the type of defense that's been the program's hallmark. The Bearcats allowed 77 points during an opening win over Savannah State, making defense a point of emphasis.

Western Carolina (0-2) rarely got an uncontested shot and had trouble getting the ball up the court against Cincinnati's trapping defense, which had 11 steals.

Kyle Washington added 14 points and seven rebounds for Cincinnati, which had four players in double figures. Matt Halvorsen led Western Carolina with 15 points.

The Bearcats are playing this season at BB&T Arena at Northern Kentucky University while their on-campus arena is renovated. They went 18-0 at Fifth Third Arena last season.

No. 13 NOTRE DAME 88, MOUNT ST. MARY'S 62

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) - Bonzie Colson had 27 points, 11 rebounds and three blocks while Notre Dame shook off a choppy opening half to roll past Mount St. Mary's in the Irish's home opener.

It was the 25th career double-double of his career. Rex Pflueger added his first with 14 points and 10 rebounds.

Matt Farrell chipped in 12 points and five assists as ND improved to 18-0 in home debuts under coach Mike Brey.

Colson, an Associated Press preseason All-American, went 11-of-15 from the field and 4-of-4 at the line.

Junior Robinson, the Mountaineers' 5-foot-5 senior guard, led the visitors with 14 points, but had just two after halftime.

No. 14 MINNESOTA 86, PROVIDENCE 74

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) - Jordan Murphy had 23 points and 14 rebounds, and Minnesota outlasted Providence.

Murphy scored 15 points in the second half, leading the Gophers back from a three-point halftime deficit. Nate Mason added 17 points and Amir Coffey finished with 15.

The Gophers tied it up 55-55 in the second half, then used a 23-11 run to take control.

Minnesota had just six assists on 30 made baskets, but they made up for it by dominating on the inside. The Gophers outscored Providence 40-26 in the paint and held a 38-31 rebounding edge.

Kyron Cartwright and Nate Watson led the Friars with 12 points apiece.

No. 15 XAVIER 101, RIDER 75

CINCINNATI (AP) - Trevon Bluiett had 26 points and nine rebounds to lead Xavier to a victory over Rider in the teams' first-ever meeting.

Tyrique Jones scored 19 points, J.P. Macura had 14, Paul Scruggs added 13 and Kaiser Gates 12 for the Musketeers (2-0), who won their 32nd straight nonconference game at home.

Jordan Allen and Stevie Jordan had 14 points each for Rider (1-1), which trailed by 19 in the first half before pulling within five early in the second half.

Gates hit a 3-pointer to start a 17-2 run that pulled Xavier out of danger with 13:28 to play. Bluiett contributed eight points in the stretch.

No. 20 NORTHWESTERN 75, SAINT PETER'S 66

ROSEMONT, Ill. (AP) - Bryant McIntosh scored 10 of his 17 points in the second half, and Northwestern held off Saint Peter's.

The Wildcats placed each of their starters in double figures in their second straight lackluster win to begin the season. Dererk Pardon scored 15 points, Gavin Skelly finished with 14 and Scottie Lindsey had 12 points and six assists.

Northwestern (2-0) made the NCAA Tournament last season for the first time in school history. The Wildcats returned four starters, but they are still looking for a complete effort through two games. They finished with 17 turnovers, helping smaller Saint Peter's stay competitive throughout the night.

Nick Griffin scored 19 points for the Peacocks, who lost 61-40 to La Salle in their season opener on Saturday.

No. 21 SAINT MARY'S 92, NEW MEXICO STATE 74

MORAGA, Calif. (AP) - Emmett Naar scored 22 points, Jock Landale added 20 points and 10 rebounds, and Saint Mary's pulled away to beat New Mexico State.

The Gaels (2-0) trailed by eight points in the first half when Landale was limited by two early fouls. But the senior center scored 12 points in the second half.

Naar, who is second on the Gaels' career assists chart, was a scorer early, providing 13 first-half points. Calvin Hermanson added 16 for the Gaels.

Zach Lofton, a graduate transfer from Texas Southern, followed his 25-point debut against East Central, with 18 points to lead the Aggies (1-1). Al Harris and Eli Chuha contributed 13 points each as New Mexico State shot 7 for 10 on 3-pointers in the first half but just 1 for 9 after the break.

No. 25 BAYLOR 70, TEXAS A&M-CORPUS CHRISTI 46

WACO, Texas (AP) - Manu Lecomte scored 23 points and Baylor pulled away from Texas A&M-Corpus Christi.

The Bears (2-0) were down 20-19 late in the first half before scoring eight straight points to go ahead to stay. Terry Maston and Lecomte both had two free throws, before Lecomte hit a 3-pointer and Maston a jumper.

Maston finished with 12 points and 10 rebounds for Baylor, which used a 12-2 run midway through the second half to take control.

Nuni Omot added 12 points for the Bears, punctuating the win with a thunderous one-handed dunk with 2:15 to go that brought the crowd to its feet.

Joseph Kilgore led the Islanders (1-1) with 10 points and 11 rebounds.

Tuesday's Tip Sheet
November 13, 2017

Four bluebloods will congregate at United Center in Chicago on Tuesday night for a doubleheader at the Champions Classic. Duke and Michigan State will collide in the lid-lifter, followed by Kansas vs. Kentucky.

Let?s take an in-depth look at both matchups.

**No. 1 Duke vs. No. 2 Michigan State**

-- As of Monday night, most books had Duke listed as a two-point favorite. Tip-off on ESPN is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. Eastern.

-- Duke (2-0 straight up, 1-0 against the spread) opened the season with Friday?s 97-68 spread-covering win over Elon as a 19.5-point home favorite. Marvin Bagley III, the 6?10? freshman, led the way with 25 points and 10 rebounds, while senior guard Grayson Allen added 22 points on 6-of-9 shooting from long distance. Gary Trent Jr. produced 17 points, six boards and three assists without a turnover. The 165 points went ?over? the 156.5-point total.

-- Mike Krzyzewski?s team was back on the court again Saturday, stroking Utah Valley by a 99-69 count in a non-lined affair. All five Blue Devils scored in double figures paced by Bagley, who had 24 points, 10 rebounds, two steals and two assists compared to merely one turnover. Allen went 7-of-11 from the field and 4-of-6 from downtown in an 18-point effort, while Trent added 17 points and four rebounds. Trevon Duval, a true freshman point guard, finished with 15 points, 12 assists (with just one turnover), three steals and three rebounds.

-- Bagley is averaging team-highs in scoring (24.5 points per game), rebounding (10.0 RPG) and field-goal percentage (65.7%). Allen (20.0 PPG) is shooting at a 66.7 percent clip from 3-point land and has a 4/1 assists-to-turnovers ratio. Duval (11.5 PPG) has made 64.7 percent of his shots from the field with a remarkable 20/1 assists-to-TOs ratio. Duval also has a team-best six steals. Another true freshman, 6?10? Wendell Carter, is averaging 10.0 points and 6.5 RPG.

-- Michigan State (1-0 SU, 1-0 ATS) played its opener Friday at home, capturing a 98-66 win over North Florida as a 31-point home favorite. The 164 combined points soared ?over? the 150.5-point total. All five starters were in double figures for the Spartans, who were led by sophomore forward Miles Bridges? 20 points, 10 rebounds and three blocked shots. Nick Ward added 16 points and made all six of his shot despite logging only 16 minutes of playing time. Jaren Jackson Jr., a 6?11? freshman McDonald?s All-American, had a successful Sparty debut with 13 points, 13 boards, four blocked shots, three assists and two steals. Sophomore guard Cassius Winston had 12 points and eight assists, burying both 3-point launches and all four of his free throws.

-- Bridges, a second-team All Big Ten selection as a freshman last year, was Tom Izzo?s biggest recruit in that he talked him into returning to East Lansing for a second season. Along with Ward and Jackson, Izzo has one of the nation?s premier frontcourts. Gavin Schilling, who missed all of last season with an injury, is back to add depth to MSU?s group of big bodies. Schilling had six points and eight boards in only 16 minutes of action in the opener.

-- These teams met at Cameron Indoor Stadium on Nov. 29 of last season, with Duke winning by a 78-69 count. However, the Spartans took the cash as 13-point road underdogs. Allen scored a game-high 24 points to go with four assists and four steals. Allen buried 5-of-11 treys from beyond the arc. Ward and Bridge scored 11 points apiece in the losing effort.

**No. 5 Kentucky vs. No. 4 Kansas**

-- As of Monday night, most betting shops had Kansas (1-0 SU, 1-0 ATS) installed as a 4.5-point favorite.

-- Kentucky (2-0 SU, 0-2 ATS) hasn?t looked overly impressive with its freshman-laded team to date. In Friday?s opener at Rupp Arena, Utah Valley raced out to a 34-25 halftime lead. The Wildcats would rally to win a 73-63 decision, but they never threatened to cover the spread as 20.5-point home favorites. The 136 combined points dropped ?under? the 156-point total. After the Wolverines hit a 3-pointer to take their biggest lead (37-25) of the game early in the second half, UK went on a 16-0 run to take the lead for good. But the ?Cats never led by more than 14 and Utah Valley backers easily cashed tickets.

-- Hamidou Diallo was the catalyst for UK in the win over Utah Valley. The six-foot, five-inch wing hit 8-of-16 shots, including 2-of-4 from downtown, and added five rebounds and three assists compared to merely one turnover. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander contributed 13 points, four steals, four assists and three boards in 36 minutes of playing time. Wenyen Gabriel added seven points, 13 rebounds, three blocked shots and three assists without a turnover. Kevin Knox finished with 12 points, six rebounds, four assists, four steals and one rejection, while Nick Richards was also in double figures with 10 points and three blocks.

-- UK didn?t come out flat at home vs. Vermont on Sunday, but it did get all it wanted for 40 minutes from the Catamounts. Kentucky eventually captured a 73-69 win, failing to cover the number once again as 12.5-point home ?chalk.? The 142 combined points slithered ?under? the 146-point tally. UK inched ahead of the number only once all game when it took a 42-28 advantage with 18:41 remaining in the second half. Vermont gradually chipped away at the lead in the second half and twice pulled to within three points in the final four minutes, but it wasn?t to be.

-- P.J. Washington scored a team-best 17 points for UK in the win over Vermont. Washington also had 10 rebounds. Diallo and Quade Green finished with 16 and 15 points, respectively.

-- Diallo is averaging a team-high 17.0 points per game for UK. Gabriel (4.5 PPG) is averaging team-bests in rebounding (7.5 RPG) and blocked shots (2.0 BPG). Knox and Washington are also scoring in double figures with 11.5 and 11.0 PPG averages, respectively.

-- Kansas senior guard Devonte? Graham, along with fellow senior G Svi Mykhailiuk, are 1-2 in three games played at the Champions Classic. The Jayhawks were smashed by UK in 2014, upset by Michigan State in 2015 and surprised top-ranked Duke with an upset win last year.

-- When asked about KU?s experience advantage over a UK team that starts five true freshmen, KU head coach Bill Self told KUSports.com, ?We?re not as young as Kentucky, but we?ve only got three guys who have been in the fire before, too. So I?m just as curious to see how our guys react in the bright lights.?

-- Graham feels like the experience edge will help KU. Graham told KUSports.com, ?It helps a lot because you?ve been in situations before. I mean, I?ve played in many big games and know it?s a game of runs. If it?s your first big game as a freshman you might be a little nervous, more nerves than usual and stuff like that. So I think experience plays a big part in any game.?

-- Graham started 72 games the past two seasons as a sophomore and a junior. He averaged 13.4 points, 4.1 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 1.5 steals per game last season. Graham had a 149/64 assists-to-turnovers ratio and shot at a 38.8 percent clip from 3-point land.

-- KU?s season ended last year with a 74-60 loss vs. Oregon in the Midwest Region finals at Sprint Center in Kansas City, where the Jayhawks basically enjoyed a home-court advantage. Nevertheless, they were denied a trip to the Final Four even though they were 6.5-point favorites.

-- KU opened the season Friday night at Allen Fieldhouse by blasting Tennessee State 92-56 as a 27-point home ?chalk.? The 148 combined points slipped ?over? the 145.5-point total. Six KU players scored in double figures led by junior wing Lagerald Vick, who drained 8-of-12 attempts from the field and 4-of-7 launches from 3-point land. Vick finished with 23 points, five rebounds and three assists. Graham produced 10 points, 12 assists, seven boards and three steals, while Mykhailiuk contributed 15 points and five boards. Malik Newman, the former five-star recruit who played his true freshman season at Mississippi State before sitting out last year due to transfer rules, had 12 points on 5-of-8 shooting in his KU debut.

-- UK has won four of five head-to-head meetings between these schools since 2011, going 3-2 ATS, but the Jayhawks have covered the number in the last two encounters. When these teams met at Rupp in the SEC/Big 12 Challenge late last January, KU captured a 79-73 win as a seven-point road underdog. In Lawrence at Allen Fieldhouse in the same event two seasons ago, Self?s squad rallied from a second-half deficit to force overtime before eventually winning a 90-84 decision to hook up its backers with a miracle cover as a 5.5-point home favorite. The 174 combined points jumped ?over? the 150-point tally.

-- In last year?s 79-73 win at UK, Graham had 12 points, seven rebounds, one assist and one steal for the winners. Mykhailiuk finished with eight points.

-- The ?under? is 4-1 in the five meetings between these teams going back to 2011.

-- Kentucky will be without one of its top freshman in five-star recruit Jarred Vanderbilt, a 6?9? forward who is nursing a foot injury he sustained in the spring. Also, Jermarl Baker is ?out? due to a knee injury. -- ESPN will provide the broadcast at around 9:30ish p.m. Eastern or approximately 30 minutes after the conclusion of Sparty-Duke.

**B.E.?s Bonus Nuggets**

-- If we use nbadraft.net?s 2018 mock as an indicator, then UK?s best player (at least in terms of an NBA prospect) is Knox, who is currently listed as the No. 9 picks in the NBA Draft. Other ?Cats in the mock draft?s first round include Richards (#14), Vanderbilt (#23) and Diallo (#24). Washington is listed at No. 32, the second pick of Round 2.

-- Duke?s Bagley is listed as the third pick in the same mock draft, while Carter (#8), Trent (#15), Duval (#26) and Allen (#27) are also in the opening round.

-- Michigan State?s Jackson is listed as the No. 6 pick, while Bridges is at No. 13.

-- Florida coasted to a 116-74 win over Gardner Webb in its season opener Monday night in Gainesville. The Gators easily took the cash as 26-point home favorites. They were led by newcomer Egor Koulechov, a grad transfer from Rice who produced 34 points, five rebounds, two steals and five assists compared to only one turnover in his UF debut. Koulechov buried 11-of-17 from the field, 6-of-9 from 3-point range and 6-of-6 from the charity stripe. Jalen Hudson, another newcomer who sat out last season at UF as a transfer from Virginia Tech, scored 16 points and dished out three assists without a turnover. Freshman Deaundrae Ballard, the prize of Mike White?s most recent recruiting class, had 14 points and four boards, while fellow true freshman Mike Okauru had 13 points, four assists and two rebounds.

NCAAB Game of the Day: Duke vs. Michigan State betting preview and odds
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mike Krzyzewski has owned Tom Izzo, going 10-1 SU in 11 career head-to-head meetings. However, Michigan State has been the slightly better bet, going 6-5 ATS.

No. 1 Duke Blue Devils vs. No. 2 Michigan State Spartans (+2, 157)

Game to be played at UNited Center, Chicago, Illinois

College basketball gets an early-season treat when No. 1 Duke takes on No. 2 Michigan State on Tuesday night in the opener of the Champions Classic at the United Center in Chicago. The Blue Devils scored 97 and 99 points in home victories over Elon and Utah Valley to start the season, while the Spartans had 98 points in their season-opening victory over North Florida.

Veteran guard Grayson Allen is the leader for Mike Krzyzewski's Duke squad, providing solid shooting (averaging 20 points per game) and leadership as the team's only senior. But the big news about the Blue Devils is the play of a tremendous freshman class that features four starters -- Marvin Bagley III (24.5 points, 10 rebounds), Gary Trent Jr. (17 points), Trevon Duval (11.5 points, 10 assists) and Wendell Carter Jr. (10 points, 6.5 rebounds). Of course, Michigan State's four-man freshmen class of a year ago is now an experienced sophomore bunch, led by Player of the Year favorite Miles Bridges (20 points, 10 rebounds in season opener), a versatile forward who is a force on both ends of the floor. He's joined by fellow sophomores Nick Ward (16 points), Cassius Winston (12 points, eight assists) and Joshua Langford (13 points) in the starting lineup along with the team's own highly touted freshman, Jaren Jackson Jr., who debuted with 13 points, 13 rebounds and four blocks.

TV: 7 p.m. ET. ESPN

LINE HISTORY: The No. 1 ranked Blue Devils opened as slight 2-point favorites on the neutral court of the United Center. Duke was bet up to -2.5, but have since returned to the opening number. The total opened at 157.5 and is down slightly to 157.

ABOUT DUKE (2-0, 1-0 ATS, 1-0 O/U): The Blue Devils are extremely talented but depth may be a problem for Krzyzewski's squad this season. In their first two contests -- wins by an average of 29.5 points -- the five starters played 289 of a possible 400 minutes and scored 166 of the team's 196 points. Against a team such as Michigan State, that has plenty of size inside and a lot of bodies that coach Tom Izzo likes to rotate into the game, the Blue Devils' starters will be tested on their ability to stay out of foul trouble and be fresh in the closing minutes of the contest.

ABOUT MICHIGAN STATE (1-0, 1-0 ATS, 1-0 O/U): Although the Spartans romped in their season opener, Izzo was not happy about the team's 3-of-12 shooting from 3-point range. Winston was 2-for-2 but shooting guards Langford and Matt McQuaid combined to go 1-of-6 from beyond the arc while Bridges was 0-for-2. Part of it may have been opening-night jitters or excitement, but the Spartans are going to need to be able to spread defenses to allow Jackson and Ward space to play down low and help Bridges find some driving lanes to the basket.

TIP-IN BETTING TIDBITS:

1. Krzyzewski is 10-1 SUagainst Izzo, however, Michigan State is 6-5 ATS in those contests.

2. Jackson became the fourth Spartan freshman to post a double-double in his debut and his 13 rebounds were the second-most by a Spartan freshman in his first game.

3. Duval's 20 assists in the first two games of a career easily topped Chris Duhon's previous school record of 12 at the start of the 2000-01 season.

The Blue Devils (3-0) lost Marvin Bagley III to an eye injury midway through the first half, but Allen made five 3-pointers and scored 23 points in the second half to help make up for the missing freshman phenom.

Wendell Carter Jr. added 12 points and 12 rebounds, helping Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski improve to 12-1 in his career against Michigan State.

Miles Bridges, Jaren Jackson Jr. and Nick Ward each scored 19 points for the Spartans, who blocked 12 shots - just one shy of the school record. Michigan State (1-1) shot 51 percent from the field, but was outrebounded 46-34 by the long and athletic Blue Devils.

CHICAGO (AP) - Svi Mykhailiuk scored 17 points, and Devonte Graham hit the clinching free throws for Kansas.

Malik Newman had a key rebound in the closing seconds and hit two foul shots to help Kansas knock off the Wildcats (2-1).

Kevin Knox led Kentucky with 20 points and Hamidou Diallo added 14.

---

Howard shot just 30 percent in the game and was outrebounded 51-33. Gonzaga made 14 3-pointers.

---

No. 19 Purdue 86, Marquette 71

MILWAUKEE (AP) - Seven-foot-2 center Isaac Haas scored 22 points, and Purdue capitalized on its size advantage in the paint.

Carsen Edwards had 15 points, while Vince Edwards added 10 points and eight rebounds for the Boilermakers (3-0). They held distinct edges in rebounding (34-23) and points in the paint (30-12).

Andrew Rowsey scored 25 points, while Markus Howard added 24 for Marquette (1-1) before fouling out with 5:20 left. Howard, the nation's leader in 3-point shooting last season (54.7 percent), went 4 of 8 from behind the arc against Purdue.

Trump hopes swift return of UCLA players
November 14, 2017

LOS ANGELES (AP) Three UCLA basketball players detained in China on suspicion of shoplifting returned home, where they may be disciplined by the school as a result of the international scandal.

Freshmen LiAngelo Ball, Jalen Hill and Cody Riley arrived at Los Angeles International Airport late Tuesday afternoon after a 12-hour flight from Shanghai. They ignored reporters' shouted questions while making their way through a horde of media outside and getting into a van that took off from the departure level.

Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott said the matter ''has been resolved to the satisfaction of the Chinese authorities.''

The players were detained in Hangzhou for questioning following allegations of shoplifting last week before the 23rd-ranked Bruins beat Georgia Tech in their season-opening game in Shanghai as part of the Pac-12 China game. The rest of the UCLA team returned home last Saturday.

A person with knowledge of the Pac-12's decision said any discipline involving the trio would be up to UCLA. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the conference doesn't plan any sanctions.

UCLA Chancellor Gene Block said the school is weighing its options.

''I want to be clear that we take seriously any violations of the law,'' he said in a statement. ''In this particular case, both Athletics and the Office of Student Conduct will review this incident and guide any action with respect to the involved students. Such proceedings are confidential, which limits the specific information that can be shared.''

There was no immediate word on the trio's status for the team's home opener Wednesday night against Central Arkansas.

The school said the three players, along with coach Steve Alford and athletic director Dan Guerrero, will make their first public comments about the matter at a campus news conference Wednesday, but won't take questions.

Scott thanked President Donald Trump, the White House and the State Department for their efforts in resolving what he called ''the incident with authorities in Hangzhou, China.'' He indicated that UCLA made ''significant efforts'' on behalf of its athletes.

It wasn't clear under what terms the players were freed to return to the U.S.

''We are all very pleased that these young men have been allowed to return home to their families and university,'' Scott said.

Trump said Tuesday he had a long conversation about the three players' status with Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping.

Ball, Hill and Riley were expected to have an immediate impact as part of UCLA's highly touted recruiting class. Instead, they are being talked about solely for their actions off the court.

Ball, a guard whose brother Lonzo is a rookie for the Los Angeles Lakers, averaged 33.8 points as a high school senior. The elder Ball played one season in Westwood and left early for the NBA draft.

The Balls' outspoken father, LaVar, was in China at the time of the incident. He spent some time promoting the family's Big Baller Brand of athletic shoes with his youngest son, LaMelo, while his middle son was detained.

Forwards Hill and Riley, both four-star recruits, figure to bolster 7-foot senior Thomas Welsh in the frontcourt.

The Bruins traveled to China as part of the Pac-12's global initiative that seeks to popularize the league's athletic programs and universities overseas. The China Game is in its third year, and while the scandal was developing the league announced that California and Yale will play in next year's edition.

The game is sponsored by Alibaba Group, the Chinese commerce giant that both UCLA and Georgia Tech visited before the shoplifting incident occurred.

Auburn set to make road trip without pair
November 14, 2017

AUBURN, Ala. (AP) The Auburn basketball team is set to make its first road trip without two top players and a pair of support staffers.

Coach Bruce Pearl said Tuesday center Austin Wiley and forward Danjel Purifoy aren't scheduled to travel to the Charleston Classic Wednesday morning. He says their status ''could change in a moment's notice.''

Auburn has been conducting an internal investigation into the basketball program since the arrest of former associate head coach Chuck Person on federal bribery and fraud charges.

Auburn placed support staffers Jordan VerHulst and Frankie Sullivan on leave Monday based on that internal review. The school is holding out Wiley and Purifoy.

Pearl says he communicates daily with Auburn's administration. Asked about his own job status, he said: ''I'm the basketball coach at Auburn and we're in the middle of an ongoing investigation.''

Armadillo: Wednesday's six-pack

? Duke 88, Michigan State 81? Blue Devils started four freshmen in this game.

? Kansas 65, Kentucky 61? Are young Wildcats better than people think?

? Wake Forest is already 0-2, losing to Georgia Southern and Liberty. Pitt lost its first two games, to Navy/Montana- they?re going to drag the ACC?s rating down a little bit.

? Eastern Washington 67, Stanford 61? Big Sky?s Eagles were a 16-point dog.

? Celtics 109, Nets 102? Boston won its last 13 game after an 0-2 start.

? Lemon pound cake at Starbucks is???tremendous!!!!
