With the official start of practice in September, UM Hoops and Inside the Hall have partnered to bring you our annual preseason breakdown of the top players in the Big Ten for the 13th straight season.
The series is broken into seven parts and we continue with our sixth installment of players 10-6 for the 2025-26 season:
Previously: 40-31, 30-26, 25-21, 20-16, 15-11
10. Nate Bittle, Oregon (7-foot, center, redshirt senior)
Why he could outperform this ranking: Bittle can make a strong case that he’s the best center in the Big Ten.
