After one of the most thrilling championship games I can ever remember, the season officially ended last night. Your champions, the Villanova Wildcats continued the trend of every National Champion playing in the YUM Center since it opened. Next year the champion will have played in the Yum Center too because we won’t have a 27 year drought before we win our next title.  (insert smiley face). The first thing I checked this morning were the ridiculously early top 25 rankings for next year that come out almost the minute the title game is over. I think you all will be happy with theses rankings.  Enjoy!

5. Louisville Cardinals

Let’s be real: This ranking is a huge guess. It hinges on two big unknowns. The first: Whether Chinanu Onuaku, one of the nation’s best offensive rebounders, interior finishers, and rim protectors returns from this spring’s draft fact-finding expedition or stays in the process after May. The second: Whether, and when, the NCAA hammers Louisville for the strippers-in-the-dorms-scandal. Was this season’s self-imposed postseason ban enough to sate the committee on infractions? Will the investigation end in the next 12 months? If Onuaku is back, and Louisville isn’t debilitated by sanctions, this team (which also adds volume scorer Tony Hicks, a grad transfer from Penn, to its backcourt) will be a force. Stay tuned.
