ESPN dropped its “megapreview” for the upcoming college basketball season this morning, complete with top storylines, All-Americans, and conference and NCAA Tournament predictions. Only one member of the four-person panel picked your University of Kentucky Wildcats to make the Final Four: Myron Medcalf.

KSR’s favorite ESPN writer is high on the Cats in Mark Pope’s second year, picking Kentucky to win the SEC and make it to Indianapolis, along with Houston, Purdue, and BYU. He didn’t shove all of his chips in on the Cats, picking Houston to win it all, but Pope is his pick for Coach of the Year.
