The top 4 I think are interchangeable. I think they'll all be competitive for the title. the top 4 will be very good. Creighton might even flirt with it. I have a feeling providence and butler will both be better than st johns. they're definitely not gonna lose ponds and finish better than this year with an improved league.
I would probably flip georgetown and providence too. Georgetown had a bit of an inflated record due to their non-conference. they're 98th in kenpom. i doubt they take that big of a jump. I could see them being a bubble team and around the top 60 next year
1. Nova
2. Xavier
3. Seton Hall
4. Marquette
5. Creighton
6. Providence
7. Georgetown
8. Butler
9. St. John's
10. Depaul
Results 11 to 20 of 22

Obviously Nova and X needed to reload next year. Nova has great class coming in next year and we know about ours.
Georgetown and DePaul’s look pretty good as well (see attached link).
Rest of league not very impressive but probably because most don’t have many spots to fill. St John’s decided to go the Juco route with 2.

there are a lot of transfers in the league as well. marquette has koby mcewen coming in and seton hall and georgetown also have some good transfers. providence only has 1 recruit because they don't lose anyone so the class doesn't look good but greg gannt is a top 60 guy

DePaul loses Eli Cain and Femi Olujobi, but their biggest loss will be Max Strus. They do get Cartare Gordon transferring in from Saint Louis and a talented freshman class, so they may be sneakily competitive next year. I'd say they could be 7th or 8th again.

As for DePaul, why on earth are playing CIT games in their on-campus bandbox after they already built Wintrust Arena downtown?

You're right - I mixed the tournaments up. The CIT is actually restricted to mid-majors.
West Virginia and Cal State-Northridge both bought their way into the CBI despite 20-loss seasons.
