Updated CBS Top 25 - SMU #24

[SMU 86]

EJ picked that title for the updated ranking that don't even count?? So much for a positive spin for your alma mater....

“@dallasnews: SMU drops 12 spots in latest CBS Sports preseason basketball rankings http://d-news.co/AfYmI http://twitter.com/dallasnews/status/49 ... 92/photo/1”

We did drop 12 spots. Just an accurate statement. Going to be interesting to see how the tram meshes to get with only 1 true pg and new players coming in to the team.

In Bleacher Report's updated rankings, they have us ranked 16th. Yes, I know it's Bleacher Report....

Also has OU at 14, Gonzaga at 14 and Texas at 11

No need to add the, it's just BR anymore. They have significantly beefed up their staff in all major sports. It's a credible site now with credible, REAL journalists.

@dallasnews @BillyEmbody No. 24 is too low IMO.

16. SMU: Even without Emmanuel Mudiay, the Mustangs will be scary. Guards Nic Moore and Keith Frazier will team with Xavier transfer Justin Martin to form one of the nation’s top backcourts. And Markus Kennedy should be a force down low.

Other opponents this year:

23. Connecticut: The defending national champions will continue to be a factor thanks to the return of guard Ryan Boatright and the addition of North Carolina State transfer Rodney Purvis.

19. Michigan: Losing Mitch McGary, Glenn Robinson III and Nik Stauskas is a massive blow, but the emergence of future NBA guard Caris LeVert should certainly make John Beilein feel a little better.

14. Gonzaga: Kentucky transfer Kyle Wiltjer joins a talented list of returnees that includes Kevin Pangos, Gary Bell and Przemek Karnowski.
