Patriot
Best: Bucknell -- Lehigh owns the headlines after its upset of Duke, but our voters still consider Bucknell the top post in the Patriot.
Worst: Army -- Academy jobs in basketball are tough. There's no way around it. The Black Knights have never been to the NCAA tournament.

    In response to MouserDZ

I agree with the above.

Here are my rankings from a coaching perspective:
1. Bucknell - great facilities and lots of support
2. American - good location and suspect academics
3. Holy Cross - tradition and strong fan base
4. Lafayette - poor facilities but lots of fan support
5. Lehigh - almost no fan support
6. Navy - tough to recruit
7. Colgate - no support
8. Army - no support and tough to recruit

BTW, it was tough deciding between Army & Colgate for 8th place, but I think that it is easier to recruit at Colgate. So, that pushed Army to the bottom.
