Preseason College Basketball Coaches Poll Released: Michigan #18

+

#18 is a pretty reasonable spot for this Michigan team, IMO. Of note: the Big Ten only has three teams in the Top 25 (Ohio State is #3 and Wisconsin is #14) although Michigan State is just out, and the Maui field is stacked (Duke is #6, Memphis is #9, Kansas is #13, and UCLA is #20). North Carolina is the number one team with 30 out of 31 first place votes.
