I’m not sure where their research comes from but Athlon picks BSU to finish 3rd in the West! Doesn’t seem to deep on research as they don’t even make mention that we have two SEC transfers!! There are other examples too. By the way, EMU picked in West! I would not bank on the headcases on this team to win the West.
Of course, no surprise as Buffalo is picked in the East.

Athlon is a middle of the road type site.. Not a lot of research but not one of the worst

While there will be some competition in the West, 3rd does seem low. Perhaps they see a close race there, and figure BSU always loses the close ones... Or perhaps they see another team really stepping it up, Western, Eastern and Toledo all could be good teams, I suppose.
But, I like having Persons as a senior guard with a chip on his shoulder. Persons and Trey represent a pretty seasoned pair. Last year I thought improved depth would be a plus, we ended up short handed. I thought the seniors would be a key and of course JT finally self destructed, Francis never showed up and only Sellers played reliably, but did not have a great season. I just don't see our seniors this year disappointing so much. Kid has a point that if they don't mention Walton and Hazen that is a little strange, Walton, Hazen and Nehls have to patch up the depth.
Eastern has some very good players but if Athlon thinks they will put it all together and win, that is a pretty risky position to take. Toledo, Western both have question marks, would have to step up big time. I think our odds of being the team that comes out of the pack are very good.

The only prediction I pay any attention to is that of BSU "stopped clock" Kid, who has correctly predicted ten of the last zero Ball State MAC titles.

Just show me General where I predicted 10 MAC titles?!
Nice sound bite but total bull shit!
With our best team this year in 18 years I predicted a MAC final appearance!
Your act is old General as are you.

Agree and will drink to that. This year's Ball State's team is the most disappointing in my 40 years of BSU sports.
