Gary Parrish doesn’t have us in his top 26 teams. I don’t know how much that says about other voters though because he despises our program.

I don't wish bad on many people in this world, but Gary Parrish is one of them.

His rankings look like they don't account for yesterday's game, so if he doesn't include is after that he's a moron. Regardless, his rankings are pretty bad. With the exception of Michigan making waves, his current poll is just his preseason poll with teams moving down 2-3 spots when they lose. I don't know how you can rank teams like LSU and Seton Hall who have two losses coming against their only 2 quality opponents this early in the season. That's just stubbornness and not letting preseason hype affect his recruiting as opposed to results on the court. www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/college-basketball-rankings-louisville-no-1-in-top-25-and-1-needs-win-over-wku-to-move-to-no-1-in-ap-poll/

Not only did Fox rebroadcast each of our games on both FS1 and FSW (= more eyes), but with our resultant jump in rankings - to #8 in Sagarin and #11-#15 in RPI (depending on the source) - I think we get enough votes to put us between 20-25. And deservedly so.
PS - Hawkeye fans are a bunch of whiny b!tches.

He has a long track record of being no friend of Aztec hoops, ever since he published that bullshite story about us playing dirty with our recruiting, which (at least in part) cost us a couple recruits. We were of course exonerated from any wrong doing, but the damage was done by that point.

We only had a few "others" votes, so a lot of teams to pass. I say we barely sneak in at #24-25. I am stoked about this team though! Best team since the 2010-2011 team. Very deep!

Dayton at #9 is a head scratcher for sure. Judging from his write up, he's putting too much emphasis on KenPom. We're in the 40s on KenPom, so he's just ignoring us without realizing that were so low on KenPom because we started at #100 and preseason rankings are still heavily influencing that. It's a stupid way of ranking that completely ignores the wins and losses on the court.

Parrish is getting raked over the coals on Twitter.
Of course, I added my own two cents worth as well...

just go out and win more games . Continue to play with chip on our shoulder . Can not slip up against CSU or San Jose no more banana peel games after decent wins . Let's see see how well Creighton and Iowa do going forward .

I don’t expect Parrish to rank us unless we go 15-0 after winning at Utah St. The dude holds a major grudge cause Aztec fans were mad at him for trying to ruin our program.

I just took a Gary Parrish but I didn't take a look to admire it before the flush!

It's a stupid way of ranking that completely ignores the wins and losses on the court. Dayton barely lost to Kansas in overtime. I watched that game and their win against VT. They didn't look like a top 10 team. They looked like #30-40 team that knew they were overmatched (against Kansas) and played chuck ball. If I recall, they made their most threes and shot their highest percentage of the year from three that game. Top 10 teams don't lose when they go 50% from 3, they lose when the shots don't fall.

#1 as long as this team is healthy. Until we are defeated why not us?

It is a logjam from 15 through 35. Don't be upset if we aren't. A lot of teams in that region were playing in good tourneys and got good wins. Just gotta keep playing and keep winning.
