Their notable alumni list may need some re-prioritization. Alphabetically, it starts with
Anthony Birchak, professional mixed martial artist (did not graduate)
Chad Curtis, professional baseball player convicted of sexual assault
Efrain Escudero, wrestler; professional mixed martial artist
What, no career criminals or ISIS members?

I found this link on the HC board. It looks like the students at Grand Canyon are having fun:

Update:
102. Utah
101. Buffalo
100. Loyola Chicago

That is a big drop for Utah who finished #47 in Kenpom last year. The good news is that the Bison should be in the top 100.

Little risk of that, if all you're predicting is where some dude at CollegeSportsMadness places the Bison in an August ranking. He may be less qualified to do that than some of the people here.

Based on some of the past work of that particular writer, I am sure some of the people here are more qualified. Having said that, if it were Bison Stu doing the top 144, the only question would be whether Bucknell was #1 or a lower spot in the top five.

No we opened at 2000-1 and are currently 3000-1 if the column labels are correct.
