For some reason I can't find the comment but someone wrote that the Pac 12 is ranked 6th in the Power 6 conferences (add to the football Power 5 the Big East Conference). Yes, it's true. Good article describing the current state (as of a week ago) of the six conferences.
Update -- see comments by bigaddi below on the Pac 12 being near the bottom of the Power 6 conferences which, again, is true.
I still think playing Brown more would have been better than our backup PGs, although I like Sheperd at PG too, but this from Fox:
“It was a gamble. He hasn’t been with our team for seven days. He wasn’t in any meetings. He didn’t do any walkthroughs. He hasn’t shot a ball. He’s been locked in his apartment. And we just took a roll of the dice. It was ‘Can he just step in here and keep rolling?’ And you could tell he wasn’t ready and understandably so.”
They stood around on both offense and defense. Five dopes.
I usually reserve my projections till we finish the first half of pac-12 schedule
Surprised ducks swept the LAs. Impressive Altman always recruits a bunch of athletic pieces and makes them into a team by mid-year
Stanford and UW trending up
Others like WSU and Colorado steady as a high-middle team
At the bottom: ASU a mess. OSU’s outlook depends on the health of their center. If he can’t go more than 15 minutes a game I don’t see them rising
Cal’s success will depend on beating some middle/bottom teams at home, and stealing at least one road game
