The NBA withdrawal deadline was Wednesday, and that means college basketball rosters are now mostly set and it’s time to provide a much clearer preseason Top 25 than the crapshoot that is the way-too-early ranking that immediately follows the national championship game.What follows will likely look similar to the preseason rankings I submit in the fall, although there are still some things up in the air that could influence the rankings. Such as…Where will Milan Momcilovic, the biggest portal prize left, play next season? What happens with Aden Holloway? Alabama is probably a Top 25 team with him, but Holloway was arrested in mid-March on drug charges and is awaiting trial. Will new LSU coach Will Wade be able to get everyone he has committed eligible? I have my doubts. There could also be more international prospects headed over to college hoops. Where will they end up? Will some of the imports already committed end up ineligible? With the NCAA’s age-based eligibility model likely to be adopted, will JT Toppin decide to return to the court for Texas Tech midway through the season instead of sitting out to recover from his torn ACL? Right now, the Red Raiders are a big man away from joining these rankings.But otherwise, these rosters are mostly set. So let’s preview the 2026-27 season. Here’s my slightly-too-early Top 25.Transfer rankings are from The Athletic’s top 100; rankings for the 2026 freshman class are via 247Sports.com.1.
