Media Preseason Basketball Awards

Here is the media's vote for preseason league standings as well as Player of the Year, New Comer of the Year, and Freshman of the Year. It seems that while BYU is the top choice there are 4 teams that have at least one first place votes and after BYU only 26 points differ from 2nd to 6th place. Yes this is preseason and if we can learn anything from football this year these standings could be quite different by seasons end, and of course when I present my rankings they may differ.
