A Random, Mid-Summer SEC Basketball Power Ranking

There’s no other way to put it, we’ve officially reached the doldrums of the college basketball off-season.

Now look, there’s obviously nothing better than what goes on from November until late March and early April. Duh. But at the same time, the college basketball off-season has slowly become an entertaining follow in its own right. Elite recruits are now waiting until late in the spring to make decisions. Transfers have created free agency in college basketball, with the best ones often waiting until early June to make their final choices on where they’ll play the following season. Then from there we get the NBA Draft (or “Graduation Night” as John Calipari calls it) and for the die-hards, even a little Summer League, where “graduation night” meets “class reunion” with so many former college hoops stars in Vegas.
