Duke holds the top spot despite losing Cameron Boozer to the NBA, buoyed by the nation's No. 1 recruiting class featuring top-five prospect Cameron Williams. Michigan follows closely behind at +1200, likely losing key players like Yaxel Lendeborg but retaining core members and adding a top-10 recruiting class.
Florida and Arizona round out the top contenders at +1400 and +1500 respectively. The Gators return a roster rich in experience despite losing center Thomas Haugh, while Arizona brings in top-five recruit Caleb Holt and potentially Jaden Bradley.
