Coach Mike Davis helped UAB exceed expectations last season, which makes it hard to pick the Blazers to fall too far back in Conference USA in 2011-12.
Conference Notes
UCF Knights 2011-12 Preview
The UCF Knights hope to channel some Jordan magic, with Marcus Jordan leading the way in 2011-12.
UTEP Miners 2011-12 Preview
After falling just short of a Conference USA title last season, the UTEP Miners might find it tougher to compete with Memphis and the top dogs in Conference USA in 2011-12.
Boston College 2011-12 Preview
The Boston College Eagles could struggle mightily this season with 90 percent of the team’s scoring and rebounding from last season moving on.
Clemson Tigers 2011-12 Preview
The Clemson Tigers squeaked into the NCAA Tournament last season, but the 2011-12 season’s version might make the field a little more comfortably.
Duke Blue Devils 2011-12 Preview
Go ahead and overlook the Duke Blue Devils now. By March, coach Mike Krzyzewski could very easily have this team back in the midst of a deep NCAA Tournament run.
Florida State Seminoles 2011-12 Preview
Coach Leonard Hamilton will get the 2011-12 edition of the Florida State Seminoles to play outstanding defense once again. But can this team be more productive at the offensive end?
Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets 2011-12 Preview
Brian Gregory takes over for Paul Hewitt in Atlanta, and he’s got some solid returning talent in Glen Rice Jr., Mfon Udofia and Kammeron Holsey to make an instant impact.
Maryland Terrapins 2011-12 Preview
Life after Gary Williams begins this season. Although it might not be smooth under Mark Turgeon for the 2011-12 season, there’s plenty of reason for the Terrapin faithful to be optimistic.
Miami Hurricanes 2011-12 Preview
A veteran lineup will lead the Miami Hurricanes in 2011-12, and with Jim Larranaga on the sidelines, the Hurricanes could be in store for their best season in years.
