Basketball Power Rankings 11/10/25
I want to thank the coach, Bobby Wilson, for contributing these rankings. Bobby’s a basketball coach and former player. When he’s not generously giving us some of his time to talk basketball, he does an amazing job talking UConn football on the T’N’T’ College Football Podcast. When we were putting together the first Lambert Trophy panel, he immediately came up because of the quality of his work.
But as he tells us, basketball is his first love. We’re grateful to have his expertise.
