San Francisco has a new coach in Kyle Smith, who turned around Columbia's program and won 25 games in his final year. Ronnie Boyce is the leading returning player, who averaged 11.1 points last season. The rest of the teams is mostly made up of talented newcomers, including Remu Raitenen and Chance Anderson in the frontcourt, and Charles Minlend Jr. and Jordan Ratinho at the guard position. Illinois Chicago was 5-25 last season as Steve McClain had trouble turning around the program in his his first season with the school. The Flames have some new prospects, including junior college transfer 6-8 Clint Robinson and Dikembe Dixson is back after being named the league's Freshman of the Year. However, the Flames face a long road back and have to open on the road. Lay the points and play San Francisco.
