Checking in with the Tourney Blog by Luke Winn

Regular Final Four Blog readers will know that we have a blog crush on the SportsIllustrated.com blog by Luke Winn, called the Tourney Blog. So, as a Wednesday tradition holds, we’re going to send you there, across the vast reaches of the internet to a much more colorful blog, with lots of musings and lots of rankings and a lot more viewers. The Tourney Blog is talking about the Kansas National Championship today, and Luke also mystifies us with a Top 10 ranking for the start of next season. While ranking teams right now is a little problematic, there is a huge rush to put together any kind of consensus about what teams will be good next season as soon as possible. You can find top 10 and top 25 lists everywhere right now. We require order, darnit!

In other news… Gonzaga point guard Jeremy Pargo has declared that he is eligible for the NBA Draft. However, he has purposely not hired an agent because doing so would bean that he gives up his NCAA eligibility. All Pargo is saying is that he’s interested in going pro. If this were politics, he’d be launching an exploratory committee to see if there is any interest in him. Good decision, Pargo. If the waters are cold, stay in Gonzaga and take another trip to the Dance.
