Four BE teams in the Top 25, including two in the Top 5!
Had Whitehead returned, it would have been five in the Top 25.

Seton Hall could surprise some people. Losing Whitehead really hurts, but they do return 4 other starters and have a transfer PG coming in.
I love the fact that Butler is getting love, but I don't see them as a Top 25 team.
March Madness starts in November
I think even without Whitehead, Seton Hall will be a top 3 team in our league. They lose a senior backup guard and Whitehead, but almost all others that saw big minutes for that team were frosh and sophs. Add in a transfer point as Fletch indicated, and I think you are looking at a top 20 team.
As a sophomore, Jevon Thomas averaged only 4.5 ppg and 3.3 apg in 25.8 mpg. Plus he shot only 37.8% overall from the field, 52.5% from the line, and 28.6% on treys (made 8 treys in 31 games). I'm not sure how much of an impact he'll have even if he does start at point.
Got to disagree on this one, as a team that has poor/inconsistent point guard play will struggle against good teams. Also, Derrick Gordon was a steady influence on that team when the young guys went off track. I will likely have Seton Hall seventh in preseason Big East predictions because of their weakness at point guard.

Kadeem Carrington could be a scoring PG.
