If the rules of this set of power rankings allowed for non-players to be included, I’d have Mario Mercurio at the very top. With teams needing 13 games to be eligible for the NCAA tournament and something on the order of 250 teams only having 3 or fewer games completed so far, his foresight in stacking Xavier’s schedule early is looking like a stroke of genius right now. DePaul is shut down (again) and they haven’t even played a season opener yet; Xavier is basically halfway to eligibility.
This is only about players, though you could make a case that the rules are arbitrary and I’m the one who made them, so changing them shouldn’t be an issue.
