After their brilliant run to the NCAA Tournament, Chris Collins and his squad are on the map for 2017-18.
The college basketball season ended Monday night when UNC defeated Gonzaga in something resembling a basketball game. For UNC, the ceiling is the roof. After the game, many reputable sites published their “way-too-early top 25s” for those precious clicks, even if the NBA Draft is months away and recruiting season isn’t over. Regardless of merit, Northwestern is all over these preseason top 25s for the first time ever.
Northwestern returns seven of its eight leading scorers and is adding (at least) Anthony Gaines and a healthy Aaron Falzon and Rapolas Ivanauskas.
