A massive slate of news has happened in the college basketball world recently. It’s been almost two months since the last update and this brings up a ton of shakeups to the mountain. Still, lots of confusion with the class of 2022 and even a few random classes of 2021s. There is still beyond plenty of time for this to all get resolved prior to November 1st and we even got see our first exhibition games yesterday. The season is quickly approaching.
