This site has the Dukes 6th!!  Interesting that they place huge emphasis on the value of transfer Frankie Hughes.

Re: Lindy's and Athlon's are out.

Predictive services tend to go conservative / underrate teams that they have limited information on or who have a lot of unknown commodities. Dukes really have both. Sometimes, I think it's a credibility thing. If you swing big too many times on risky or bold picks, you lose credibility. If you stick with safe picks and you're wrong, readers care less as a lot of people were wrong together. Other times, I think they just fail to do adequate research.

I think everyone of these pre season magazines had Davidson ranked last on their inaugual  year in A 10
and they won the league.I dont know how the Hilltoppers are going to do this year,nobody does.I am hopeful
but not sure.
