With the 2018-2019 college basketball season wrapped up last night, many college basketball writers and blogs have released their “way too early” top 25 rankings. Apparently, many believe Chris Mack’s UofL squad will be a force to be reckoned with in the 2019-2020 season.
UofL is ranked right around and in the top 15 with some rankings in the top 10, including the highest ranking of 7th from Gary Parrish of CBS Sports. It is important to note that many of the rankings are made with the belief Jordan Nwora and Steven Enoch will withdraw from the NBA Draft and return to UofL. Here are all the rankings below.
