Cal Men's Basketball picked to finish 11th in Pac-12 Preseason Media Poll
In the bottom 3 for the 5th straight season
With Pac-12 Men’s Basketball Media Day underway in San Francisco today, the conference announced the Media Poll for the preseason. UCLA was picked to finish at the top of the conference with 26 first-place votes. Arizona and Oregon followed up with 3 first-place votes each. The only other team to receive a first-place vote was Stanford who was picked to finish 5th.
The Bears were picked to finish 11th for the second straight season, continuing a disappointing streak of being picked to finish in the bottom 3 of the conference for the 5th straight season.

I'll be putting Cal MBB in simulator mode until the AD actually pretends to care. Knowlton & Co are not only burning today's goodwill but tomorrow's donor base.
With football season being over, I can't wait for basketball. Totally different team. Curious to see if the play is as different as Fox and the players talk about it being. Go Bears!
