Accurate for us. Not accurate for West Virginia, Baylor, and Texas Tech.
 
Reality is that preseason polls are pretty much meaningless other than to create bubba chatter, a good basis being last year when they got zero correct. I suppose most years they get the first place team right, maybe the second on occasion, but mostly thereafter it's a dart throw, isn't it. That's certainly the case for this upcoming season as shown by the two rankings posted in this thread. The preseason teams are generally closer to reality though.

How long until CSP seat starts getting at least a little bit warm? He keeps recruiting well, but then so did McDermott. So far, his recruiting has not translated into consistent regular-season success.

McDermott never had a winning record.

CSP is as secure as secure gets.

What a horrible ******* post. Even worse it got the surly seal of approval.
