State has replaced Wake

A giant killer is a team who is not supposed to win but does. State was Top 10 preseason in some ratings. They have the talent to go very far this year,

It has nothing to do with preseason ranking. If anything, their preseason ranking contributes to the premise of this thread.

They are 3-10 versus Top 25 teams in the past two years. They aren't "giant killers".

That's the reason I didn't start this thread last year and waited to start it until AFTER they had killed a giant.
 
Obviously a fair concern. Codi outscored CJ in the Xavier game and Moto was the guy who got everything started against Moto. We certainly climbed on CJ's back for a quarter of the game last night and no player looks ready to play that roll next year.

But c'mon, "absolute ceiling?" I mean, Mitchell is a big time recruit. Even if you didn't know who was playing with him at all you can't justify that statement.

How many "big time" recruits have fizzled under Buzz since he arrived at Wake? The Buzz ceiling is mediocrity. An occasional NCAAT appearance under Buzz is possible, but certainly not expected.
