The Indiana Hoosiers are 15th in one of the more useless iterations of the poll.
College basketball season is getting closer and closer, the signs are everywhere. Practices are starting up, the leaves are turning colors and the air gets crisper, and also the a bunch of DEFINITELY COACHES AND NOT ANYONE ELSE NO WAY have voted on who they think the best teams are long before anyone actually takes the court and plays a game.
Enjoy.
