What's Up In The Missouri Valley 10/19/2021

ROUNDTABLE: Heat Check CBB staff breaks down preseason Top 25 college basketball rankings--Heat Check CBB

Q: St. Bonaventure is ranked 23rd while Richmond, Colorado State, Belmont, San Diego State, Drake and BYU also received votes. Which mid-major team is most likely to enter the top 15 first?

LH: Porter Moser and Cameron Krutwig departed this offseason, but I am still very high on Loyola Chicago. The Ramblers return four starters from a top-10 KenPom and Sweet 16 team. They should remain elite defensively and are clearly in the upper echelon of the MVC along with Drake. Their schedule sets up nicely where they could roll through some lower-tier teams and impress enough at the Battle 4 Atlantis to rise up the ranks before dominating most of the MVC.

Lucas Williamson, Loyola Chicago: A sturdy defender and reliable long distance shooter (35.9 percent from three-point range in 20-21), the 6-4 Williamson is back for another season as a fifth-year senior. With a Final Four and Sweet 16 appearance already on his resume, Williamson’s decision to return for another year is one of many reasons why the Ramblers are expected to again be one of the top mid-majors in college basketball.
