After a busier-than-usual summer due to the delayed withdrawal deadline for the NBA draft, and then some significant reclassifications and commitments in August, roster changes expectedly slowed in September.

It's now been more than six months since the initial Way-Too-Early Top 25 of the offseason -- and the rankings have constantly shifted. The two biggest movers since the night of the national championship game in early April were Memphis and Texas, two teams that transformed their rosters via the transfer portal and recruiting trail and are now clear-cut preseason top 10 teams.
