If Brown stays, and we add Williams. We have top 10 talent, no doubt.

If Troy Brown stays and they grab Williams (or that center, or both), there really isn't any reason they shouldn't be top 10 next year. I really believe that Elijah Brown was a net negative in most games and should easily be replaced by someone who just makes better basketball decisions. The talent coming in plus the improvements from guys like Wooten should flip a ton of games into Oregon's favor.

I really think that the team this last season was one guy away from being 25-5 or something close to that, there's no reason the same general group with a ton of talent infused across all five positions shouldn't be able to get to around that record. Also, Arizona should be a mess and the worst they have been in a decade. I don't pay attention to the others much but Oregon State also lost one of their best players. Is the rest of the Pac going to be any good?

I think ASU and USC both lost a lot of talent, Holiday and Welsh are both gone from UCLA.

Pac-12 won't be too hot again next year. Unless this freshmen class steps it up big time.

Seems a more realistic right now.
#7 is with Brown on the team, #25 is with him off, neither, being "way early" have Williams or Okoro on the roster.

AP Way Too Early Poll http://www.oregonlive.com/ducks/index.s ... iver_index

This one also has Brown returning, and the Ducks, at 13, splits the difference in the first two.
