Three Gonzaga players — Filip Petrusev, Corey Kispert and Joel Ayayi — have applied for early entry to the NBA Draft. So fans of the consistently great West Coast Conference program are going to have to sweat this thing out.
Who stays? Who goes?
The definitive answers to those questions will come later. But it should be noted that none of the Zags are projected first-round picks, and all of them have said returning to school is an option they're considering. So, for now, I'm projecting all three to play college basketball again next season -- and that's among the reasons Gonzaga remains No. 1 in Version 10.0 of the 2020-21 CBS Sports Preseason Top 25 And 1.
If you've been following these updates, you know that what I do is assume all consensus projected first-round picks will remain in the NBA Draft, make educated guesses about other underclassmen, and omit (for now) all traditional sit-out transfers. As always, when I need to adjust, I'll adjust. Version 11.0 is likely right around the corner. But, at this moment, Mark Few's Bulldogs are No. 1 based on the idea that everybody who can return from a team that finished 31-2 will return from a team that finished 31-2. If that happens, the Zags will have three of their top five scorers back and benefit from a top-10 recruiting class highlighted by 5-star guard Jalen Suggs.
The only change in this update is that LSU dropped out after Emmitt Williams announced he's entering the NBA Draft while suggesting he's done with college basketball, for better or worse. That opened a spot that was filled by Florida. So Mike White's Gators are the new No. 26.
Top 25 And 1 rankings
Rk | Teams | Chg | Rcrd | |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 |
Gonzaga
| Multiple Zags are testing the waters - among them frontcourt star Filip Petrusev. But, for these purposes, I've projected everybody who can return to return, which would give Mark Few three of the top five scorers back from a team that finished 31-2 and was about to be a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. Combine that with a top-10 recruiting class highlighted by 5-star guard Jalen Suggs, and Gonzaga should be considered the favorite to win the 2021 NCAA Tournament. | -- | 5-0 |
2 |
Baylor
| The top three scorers from a Baylor team that spent multiple weeks ranked No. 1 in the Associated Press Top 25 poll should be back - and that doesn't even include Mark Vital, a finalist for the Naismith Defense Player of the Year award. Jared Butler is expected to lead the way. He averaged a team-high 16.0 points, 3.1 assists and 1.6 steals per game as a sophomore and is the main reason Scott Drew's Bears should be the preseason favorite in the Big 12 provided nobody leaves early. | -- | 4-1 |
3 |
Villanova
| Saddiq Bey, at this point, qualifies as a consensus projected first-round pick. So the projection is that Villanova will lose its leading scorer from a team that went 7-1 in its final eight games. But everybody else should be back, which leaves Jay Wright with a talented and experienced roster built to win big. And if Bey ultimately decides to return to Villanova for at least one more season, the Wildcats would be a contender to be No. 1 in the preseason. | -- | 3-3 |
4 |
Virginia
| Virginia should return three starters from a team that closed the regular season with eight consecutive victories thanks to a defense that ranked first nationally in efficiency. Former Marquette standout Sam Hauser, who averaged 14.9 points and 7.2 rebounds two seasons ago, will be eligible after sitting out the 2019-20 campaign. He'll make an immediate impact and have Tony Bennett in a position to compete for a second national championship in a three-year span. | -- | 3-1 |
5 |
Houston
| This ranking is based on the Cougars returning the top six scorers from a team that shared the American Athletic Conference title and finished 14th at KenPom. If Nate Hinton and/or DeJon Jarreau decide to remain in the NBA Draft, the ceiling will be lowered. But, for now, there's no reason to have Kelvin Sampson's team labeled as anything other than the clear favorite in the AAC. | -- | 2-1 |
6 |
Iowa
| Luka Garza will be the obvious preseason national player of the year if he returns to Iowa for his senior season, which is among the reasons he's expected to return to Iowa for his senior season. Presumably, he'll be joined by the four other starters from a team that finished 23rd at KenPom. And don't forget: Iowa will get Jordan Bohannon back after a redshirt season. So Fran McCaffery should have the best team he's ever had in 22 years as a Division I head coach. | -- | 5-0 |
7 |
Kansas
| Devon Dotson's decision to enter the NBA Draft after two seasons means the Jayhawks will be without the top two scorers from a team that would've been the overall No. 1 seed in the 2020 NCAA Tournament. That's not ideal. But the arrival of 5-star guard Bryce Thompson, combined with an experienced core of Ochai Agbaji, Marcus Garrett, David McCormack and Christian Braun, should provide Bill Self with enough to compete for yet another Big 12 title. | -- | 5-0 |
8 |
Duke
| Vernon Carey, Tre Jones and Cassius Stanley have all announced they're in the NBA Draft. So the Blue Devils are losing their top three scorers, and four of their top six, from this past season's team that finished tied for second in the ACC. Still, the return of Matthew Hurt and Wendell Moore should give Mike Krzyzewski two experienced and reliable pieces to pair with a top-two recruiting class highlighted by 5-star prospects Jalen Johnson, Jeremy Roach and DJ Steward. So Coach K winning a sixth national title remains in the cards. | -- | 3-1 |
9 |
Creighton
| Every player who started a game for Creighton this past season was projected to return - but that changed when Ty-Shon Alexander, the Bluejays' leading scorer, announced he's entering the NBA Draft and remaining in it. That's an unfortunate development for Creighton. But, even with Alexander gone, Greg McDermott should still bring back four starters from a team that was the top seed in the Big East Tournament. So the Bluejays will have a chance to make the Final Four for the first time in school history. | -- | 4-0 |
10 |
Wisconsin
| Wisconsin got better after Kobe King quit the team in January - evidence being how the Badgers won eight straight games to close the regular season and shared the Big Ten crown with Maryland and Michigan State. Now the top five scorers from the final-game roster are expected back. The best of the bunch might be Micah Potter, who averaged 10.1 points and 6.2 rebounds while shooting 52.8% from the field. He's among the reasons Wisconsin will be positioned to secure back-to-back league titles. | -- | 5-0 |
11 |
Michigan St.
| If Xavier Tillman decides to return to school, Michigan State will move into the top 10. But, for now, the presumption is that the 6-8 forward is done with college basketball, which means the Spartans will likely be without the top two players from a team that shared the Big Ten title with Maryland and Wisconsin. Finding a suitable replacement at point guard for Cassius Winston won't be easy. But Tom Izzo hasn't missed the NCAA Tournament since 1997 - and that'll still be true after next season. | -- | 4-1 |
12 |
Tennessee
| Yves Pons has declared for the NBA Draft. But assuming he returns, Tennessee will be adding 5-star guards Jaden Springer and Keon Johnson to an experienced core that also features John Fulkerson, Santiago Vescovi and Josiah-Jordan James. That's a strong roster that should result in a bounce-back season for the Vols, who look like the favorite in the SEC thanks to a combination of what they're enrolling and what Kentucky is losing | -- | 5-0 |
13 |
West Virginia
| The Mountaineers collapsed down the stretch and lost six of their final nine games, but they still finished 10th at KenPom, which suggests they were better than their record. Now West Virginia is expected to return the top three players from that team - most notably Oscar Tshiebwe, who averaged 11.2 points and 9.3 rebounds while shooting 55.2% from the field as a freshman. So Bob Huggins will enter next season with an accomplished roster good enough to compete for a Big 12 title. | -- | 3-1 |
14 |
Kentucky
| The Wildcats are losing the top six scorers from a team that won the SEC by multiple games - most notably SEC Player of the Year Immanuel Quickley and projected first-round pick Tyrese Maxey. That's rough. But if any program is built to overcome these departures, it's the one set to enroll the nation's top-ranked recruiting class featuring 5-star guards Terrence Clarke, BJ Boston and Devin Askew. Exactly what John Calipari will do to further enhance his roster remains unclear. But it's possible the Wildcats could creep back into the top 10 of the Top 25 And 1 before the season begins if the UK staff secures some solid reinforcements. | -- | 4-0 |
15 |
N. Carolina
| Roy Williams just endured what he called the toughest season of his coaching career - one that resulted in five more losses (19) than wins (14). It was rough. But the 2020-21 season will be much better, even with the loss of Cole Anthony, thanks to the arrival of a top-three recruiting class featuring 5-star prospects Day'Ron Sharpe, Walker Kessler and Caleb Love. With Garrison Brooks, Armando Bacot, Anthony Harris and Leaky Black all expected back, UNC will be talented enough to push Virginia and Duke at the top of the ACC. | -- | 2-1 |
16 |
Texas Tech
| Texas Tech lost four of the top five scorers from its team that played for the 2019 national title but still finished 21st at KenPom in 2020. It was impressive stuff from Chris Beard. And now, next season, the Red Raiders will pair Davide Moretti and Kyler Edwards with a top-15 recruiting class highlighted by 4-star prospects Nimari Burnett and Micah Peavy. So Texas Tech should operate in the top half of the Big 12 again even with Jahmi'us Ramsey leaving school after just one season. | -- | 4-1 |
17 |
Ohio St.
| Ohio State beat Duke for graduate-transfer Seth Towns - a 6-8 forward from Harvard who was the Ivy League Player of the Year in 2018. His arrival alone won't cancel out the departure of Kaleb Wesson, but it'll help. Meantime, Duane Washington, CJ Walker and Kyle Young should provide Chris Holtmann with an experienced nucleus on a team that is projected to return five of the top nine scorers from a roster that finished No. 8 at KenPom this past season. | -- | 3-1 |
18 |
Texas
| Greg Brown's commitment means the Longhorns are adding a 5-star freshman to a roster that should return every player who helped Texas go 5-1 in its final six games. That's among the reasons next season's UT team could be the best Shaka Smart has coached since taking over in Austin. He'll have the type of experience and talent that good college teams typically possess. | -- | 4-1 |
19 |
UCLA
| The greatest in-season turnaround of the 2019-20 season belonged to UCLA, which went from 8-9 to 19-12 by going 11-3 in its final 14 games. It was incredible stuff from Mick Cronin and his staff. And now the top five scorers from that team should be back - provided Chris Smith withdraws from the NBA Draft, which is the projection here. If that happens, he'll be joined by 5-star point guard Daishen Nix, a one-and-done talent who will return exciting basketball to Pauley Pavilion. | -- | 4-1 |
20 |
Arizona St.
| The surprising addition of Josh Christopher was a major development for Arizona State, which will pair the 5-star guard with a talented and experienced core - as long as Remy Martin and Romello White withdraw from the NBA Draft, which is the projection here. If that happens, Bobby Hurley's Sun Devils will be in a position to finish in the top three of the Pac-12 for what would be the third consecutive season. | -- | 5-1 |
21 |
Oregon
| It's impossible to overstate what losing somebody like Payton Pritchard will mean to Oregon; he was fabulous and a worthy All-American. But two of the other top-three scorers from the Pac-12 champs are expected back - and Dana Altman has worked the transfer market again. So it would be foolish to assume the Ducks will do anything but compete for another Pac-12 title. | -- | 5-0 |
22 |
Rutgers
| Rutgers should return seven of the top eight scorers from a team that finished 28th at KenPom - most notably double-digit scorers Ron Harper Jr. and Geo Baker. Beyond that, the Scarlet Knights are adding a consensus top-50 prospect in Cliff Omoruyi. So winning at the RAC will once again be a difficult task for opponents because Steve Pikiell should have a team equipped to make the NCAA Tournament for what would be, under normal circumstances, the second straight season. | -- | 4-0 |
23 |
Stanford
| A late commitment from 5-star wing Ziaire Williams was enough to push Stanford into the Top 25 And 1 under the assumption that Tyrell Terry will ultimately withdraw from the NBA Draft. If that happens, the Cardinal will add a heralded freshman to a roster that would include the top six scorers from this past season's team that finished in the top 45 at KenPom. | -- | 5-0 |
24 |
Florida St.
| Leonard Hamilton just led Florida State to its first conference title since 1989, but most of the best players from that team are gone. Devin Vassell and Patrick Williams are leaving early for the NBA Draft, and Trent Forrest is out of eligibility. So the Seminoles have holes to fill. But 5-star forward Scottie Barnes is likely to make an instant impact, and there are enough quality pieces returning to keep Florida State competitive in the ACC. | 1 | 4-1 |
25 |
Arkansas
| Arkansas' 20-12 record this past season is misleading because the Razorbacks were actually 19-7 with Isaiah Joe in the lineup, just 1-5 without him. Joe has entered the NBA Draft - but this ranking projects him to eventually withdraw and return to Arkansas. If that happens, the Hogs will return two of their top four scorers and enroll a top-10 recruiting class featuring four top-100 prospects - most notably Moses Moody. So while the early departure of Mason Jones is less than ideal, Eric Musselman should still have Arkansas in the NCAA Tournament and positioned to maybe make the Sweet 16 for the first time since 1996. | 1 | 3-1 |
26 |
Florida
| Andrew Nembhard and Tre Mann have both entered the NBA Draft. But neither has a realistic chance of being selected. So the projection is that both will be back, which means Michael White should return eight of the top nine players - including three double-digit scorers, most notably Keyontae Johnson - from a team that finished fourth in the SEC. If that happens, the Gators will be a threat to win the SEC. | NR | 5-0 |
