With Dan off the board, figured I'd get this going for this week for our regular contributors on this thread.

1. Connecticut 15-2 (5-1)
Winning while waiting on Clingan's return.

2. Creighton 13-4 (4-2)
Winners of four straight now bring the show on the road this week with two games at Big East leaders UConn and Seton Hall.

3. St. John's 12-5 (4-2)
Four game win streak snapped with a one point nailbiter in Omaha. Playing well coming to Newark Tuesday.

4. Marquette 11-5 (2-3)
Lost only three times in 20 league games last season. Took them only five games to do that this season.

5. Villanova 11-5 (4-1)
Quietly won 5 out of 6 since a three game losing streak in December.

6. Seton Hall 12-5 (5-1)
Are they for real? Recent resume says yes, metrics say probably not. Big week ahead.

7. Xavier 8-8 (2-3)
Not a great record but this team wins big when it does win.

8. Providence 11-6 (2-4)
Four straight L's after starting league play 2-0. Due to the loss of Hopkins or just coming back down to earth? Probably both.

9. Butler 10-6 (2-4)
Competitive at home against UConn and Seton Hall, but lost both late. Lost four out of last five.

10. Georgetown 8-9 (1-5)
Showed some signs of life this week but the only reason they aren't 11th is because of...

11. DePaul 3-13 (0-5)
Historically bad major conference team. Current NET of 288, just ahead of the likes of Kansas City, Delaware State, and UTRGV.

Need to see St. John’s win a game against UConn, Marquette, or Creighton before putting them top 3. Their performance in Omaha was solid, but as Pitino said, there’s no moral victories in this league.

We’ll know more about St John’s this week. SHU in Newark, home for Marquette. But they do have a deep, talented roster.
 
1 - UCONN
2 - Creighton
3 - Marquette
4 - Villanova
5 - Seton Hall - Still rising
6 - St. John's - Pretty good
7 - Butler - Good

8 - Xavier
9 - Providence - Falling

10 - Georgetown
11 - DePaul
