During media day today in Washington, D.C., the pre-season predictions were released. The CAA predicted that the Huskies will finish 2nd in the conference this year, behind only VCU. Matt Janning was selected as a member of the pre-season All-CAA first team, the only Huskies player to receive an accolade. Here are the complete predicted standings:
1. VCU
2. Northeastern
3. Old Dominion
4. George Mason
5. Delaware
6. Georgia State
7. Hofstra
8. William & Mary
9. James Madison
10. Towson
11. UNC Wilmington
12. Drexel
The new issue of SportingNews does not share the same thoughts as those within the CAA. They have the Huskies picked to finish 6th in the conference, which may serve as motivation. If memory serves us well, the CAA and almost everyone predicted the Huskies to finish last in the 2007-2008 season, and they finished 6th. Predictions are only as good as the paper they are written on. It will be up to the Huskies now to embrace the expectations and live up to them, and that first step is only 20 days away.
