CHN Picks Bradley #120

CHN just listed their inaugural Top 100 college players.
http://collegehoopsnet.com/top100/061009.htm


1 Joakim Noah
2 Tyler Hansbrough
3 Glen Davis
4 Greg Oden
5 Nick Fazekas
6 Ronald Steele
7 Kevin Durant
8 Aaron Gray
9 Brandon Rush
10 Richard Roby

Rush didn't show me much last year, neither did Gray.
To have two freshmen on that list is impressive or else it means there just aren't any good upperclassmen left.
They also have a lot of extras and info bits on the top 30 if you click their names.

Not many midmajor players on the list, but
Nate Funk is #55
Grant Stout is #68
Blake Ahearn is #78
 
CHN has just released their entire rankings from #145 through #336.

They are still counting down and are at #20-Nevada, so the Top 19 teams have yet to be revealed, and SIU has yet to be named, so they are in the top 19.

OK....time to do a retrospective on the pick that Collegehoopsnet did last fall.
After all they are about to begin their 2007-2008 Top 144 countdown, and I know we will be following it to see who they pick and where.

I had applauded them because they were one of the few predictions that had BU higher than 8-9th.
(they selected BU at #120 overall and 7th in the MVC)

But how did they do overall in predicting the teams that ended up doing well at the end of the season......I will let you decide.


Here are how they predicted the teams that ended up in the Sweet Sixteen would rank...........

Team................where they picked them to finish
Florida............................................1
Ohio State......................................7
UCLA..............................................6
Georgetown...................................13
North Carolina..................................2
USC..............................................39
Vandy...........................................63
Butler..........................................106
Oregon..........................................56
UNLV.............................................71
Tenn.............................................31
Texas A&M.....................................12
Memphis.........................................21
Kansas............................................3
SIU...............................................19
Pitt.................................................5

So of their choices for the top 16, only EIGHT of them made it to the Sweet Sixteen, and they really missed on teams like Oregon, Vandy, UNLV, and Butler.
I would grade their accuracy as barely more than 50% on selecting to top teams.
