Coaches' Poll is Out! Maryland Ranked 14th

Only a week after the men, but the ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll is officially out and the Terps are ranked 14th, the highest they have been ranked to start the season in some time. Tennessee is #1, followed by Duke, LSU and Ohio State meaning that by December UM will have played each of these teams at least once in the past year.

Aside from UT and Duke, the following Maryland opponents are also ranked: UNC (8), Michigan State (11) and NC State (24).

14 is right around where I think we deserve to be especially with an unproven point guard. The gap between us and Texas Tech is over 100 points so we have to make some noise early to close that gap before the Virgin Islands.
