Daily Skinny (Sept. 1)-Big 10 prospects, Pac 10 preview, St. Joe's preview

Draft Express gives us Part 2 (players 6-10) of their Big Ten prospect list, with no Gophers in sight. Give it a year I guess before Sampson, White, and perhaps a surprise burst onto the list:

ESPN gives us their summer preview on the Pac 10, the league that seems most likely to be the weak sister of the Big Six Conferences. Funny to see Oregon State projected ahead of UCLA, isn’t it?

Logic tells us that the NCAA will let this legislation pass and still allow teams to make summer trips, especially with the good work that someone like Ron Hunter is doing. Of course, the NCAA isn’t necessarily concerned with logic:

College Hoops Net is doing their annual preview of the top 144 teams in college basketball and the top non-conference home opponent for the Gophers, St. Joe’s, checks in at #95; it should be noted they’re ranked higher than Indiana and Iowa.
