Btw the pre season publication I have had western Kentucky picked 7th in C-USA with their best returning player being a 6ft guard who avged about 10ppg


This literally took me 5 seconds to google (LINK /)

In that article, they are picked 2nd in the conference. Here is a line from it..

"Really the only thing that will hold back WKU from contending for a Conference USA title would be depth. As I mentioned, their first six are outstanding, but there’s a pretty steep drop off after Ben Lawson."

Hard to believe your magazine didn't mention Justin Johnson. He was projected to be all conference and led the team in scoring and rebounding last year..

Yes they mentioned him "returning player who could make a significant jump" 12.9 ppg and 8.1 Rebs hardly all conf numbers. Dunno how they could be predicted to challenge in conf USA they've been trending down annually the past couple years from 20 to 18 to sub .500 this year. Whoever predicted them being good doesn't understand trends.
