The site that ranks the top 144 teams came out with St. John's and Butler projections (6th and 5th in the conference, respectively). Interestingly, they have both as basically bubble teams looking from the outside, meaning they project only 4 BE teams in the NCAA Tournament (Villanova, Creighton, Georgetown and Marquette are yet to be previewed). I think they are off ranking Butler this high, and I hope they are off on only including 4 Tournament teams.
