St. John's to be an experiment in youth [ESPN.com]

It's not often you see a hoops program graduate 10 -- yes, 10 -- seniors in one season. Same goes for a team with a recruiting class that features nearly as much quantity (eight signed players) as quality (the No. 3-ranked class in the country, according to ESPN's recruiting analysts). And, for that matter, it's not often you see a team that returns just one upperclassman, especially when that team didn't undergo some sort of forced mass exodus in the wake of some sort of NCAA infractions scandal.

When it comes to the media Steve Lavin has the Midas touch. We came from out of the shadows last year and lo and behold were everywhere - television - newspapers - the internet. Now it looks like all eyes will turn towards St. John's next year as well.

7 freshmen & 2 JUCO's

MKras, you are right I am.  All those Irish folk look alike on paper.

Disappointing to see Harrison drop into the 60's but on the other end of the spectrum its very exciting to see Pointer surge into the mid 20's. Overall very impressive rankings. We should be in for a lot of fun this season.
