Preseason #25

25. St. John's Red Storm: This spot originally came down to Florida, Clemson and TCU, but with St. John's getting a waiver for Auburn transfer Mustapha Heron to play immediately, the Red Storm get the nod heading into the season. The personnel is not in question. Heron and Shamorie Ponds form one of the elite backcourts nationally, but remember, this team has had talent in recent years and consistently disappointed. This is the year for Chris Mullin to put it together.

This is almost surreal. Who saw this after the 0-7 conference start last year.
