Liking the love for Syracuse. But since are top 15 in almost every category you've listed except SG and PF, I expect we are in the top 15 of your preseason rankings.
If college basketball was a 4-on-4 half-court game, I'd certainly rank Syracuse in the top-15...but they need to improve their defense first. It was awful last season.
