Our Boilers end the season at #14, according to the coaches. Pretty fair...
UNC was the unanimous number one, MSU (of course) finished second...and the squeaky-clean UConn Huskies, Purdue's final loss of the season, round out the top-3.
No other Big Ten teams finished in the top-25, but Illinois, Michigan and Ohio State all received votes...and of course, NIT Champ, Penn State received votes* as well...as they should have as they were a good team.
I'm already excited about the Big Ten basketball season for '10...the Sophomore-dominated conference will grow up quite a bit in the off-season, and the conference with the best coaching will have quite a bit of firepower to go along with the strategery. Should be fun.
*Their NIT Championship opponent, Baylor, did not receive any votes...nor did Notre Dame, Kentucky, Creighton or Bowling Green.

Hey, on Dicky V's pre season poll for next year, he has Mich St at #5 and Purdue at #4, lets hope our boys can play well enough to achieve and hold this.
2010 Preseason Rankings
Dickie V: 4
New York Times: 3
And all that without Scott "Lucky Charms" Martin.
I hope the 2010 Boilers can really make some noise next year. It would be great to see the guys rewarded for working hard and sticking with the program.
