Introductions

Hello there, and welcome to Three Point Range, a blog about college basketball. I’m a huge fan of the sport and wanted to share my thoughts with the world. I know it’s late in the season, but I finally have the time to begin and continually update a blog. This blog will heavily feature my own thoughts, analysis, and bias, and it is highly possible I will be wrong a majority of the time. As for myself, I am a shooter by nature, and that’s about all I do well on the court, which is why I’m writing about college basketball instead of playing. This reflects in teams that I favor, as the better they shoot, the more I like them. I am a fan of the Michigan Wolverines, and you may see that reflected in my analysis. For the rest of this season, I plan on giving my thoughts on the field of 68 and then giving my predictions for the tournament. I’ll give round-by-round recaps of all the tournament games and then reactions to any offseason news. During the next season and beyond, I will look to give daily insights on games I watched and whatever else comes up that I feel like sharing. I hope you continue to read, and share your thoughts on NCAA Basketball. If you would like extra insights follow on Twitter @ThreePointRange.

ACC Preview

After a long summer, I have returned to the college basketball blogging game. I apologize for taking such a long time off, but I've been keeping up with everything in the world of college basketball, and I'm excited to get back into the swing of things. We start off my preseason coverage with a league that is near and dear to my heart, the ACC. For those of you who don't know, I'm a Syracuse student and fan, but I try not to let my bias get in the way of my journalistic integrity. I'll have tiered rankings, but the order I give is the order I expect them to finish. As for the ACC itself, after years of dominance, this season figures to be a bit of a down one, with the bottom half of the conference being very weak. As always, let me know your thoughts on the conference and where you may disagree with my predictions on Twitter @ThreePointRange, and be sure to check back throughout the next few days for my previews for the other conferences.

Predictions for the Remaining Transfers

As we move into June, many of the rosters in college basketball have really begun to take shape. There are very few impact recruits left, and the deadline for withdrawing from the NBA Draft has passed, so rosters are really shaping up. However, there are a few impact transfers still available, both sit out guys and graduate transfers, so I decided to break down where they might land. Be sure to follow me on Twitter @ThreePointRange, and let me know what you think of these destinations, and what schools you think these players should go to. Sit Out Players Devonaire Doutrive, SG, Arizona A top 75 player coming out of high school last year, Doutrive struggled to find playing time with the Wildcats in year one and elected to transfer out of the program in search of greener pastures. Despite underwhelming during his time in Tuscon, there should be a long line of schools interested in bringing him into the program. He could return home to Texas and play for Houston, who need guard he
