Yahoo does a better job here. My boy Roosevelt Jones on the first team on Yahoo!
SI has Xavier at three! If that's the case, Big East is screwed. They need the big boys (Nova, Gtown, SJU) to be top 25.

SI has Sheed averaging only 11.4 points and 3.3 assists. There is no way he will average that low in both categories. If his assists are that low it's because he's scoring north of 15. If his points are that low, it's due to his focus on distributing the ball more to his teammates. He's too talented to be that mediocre in both.

They also have Harrison and Keith Thomas at nearly the same rebounds per game. While Harrison is a great rebounder for a guard, Thomas will averaging seven to nine boards per game if he is scoring their projected 7.1 points. The dude averaged 15.3 points and 15.7 rebounds on a team where he was expected to score. He won't have that expectation here. He just too good at getting low for position and driving guys off the block.
