BasketballBuzz CIS Men’s Basketball Top 25 Power Rankings – Preseason Oct 28 2014

The 2014-15 CIS Men’s basketball season is here and so are the BasketballBuzz Top 25 Power Rankings.

This season promises to be as good as ever, with several big changes to transfer rules, including the realignments and renaming of conferences. The future of Canadian university basketball has never looked brighter.

On the hardwood, although parity continues to spread across the country both the Carleton Ravens and the Ottawa Gee-Gees dominated the early CIS preseason buzz by going a combined 7-2 against NCAA division one teams and 19-2 overall, including several major  over Top 25 CIS teams.

On the hardwood, parity continues to spread across the country as both the Carleton Ravens and the Ottawa Gee-Gees dominated the early CIS preseason buzz. They went a combined 7-2 against NCAA division I teams and 19-2 overall, including several major victories over Top 25 CIS teams.

The top 10 features a total of five teams from the Ontario, three from the Atlantic and two from out west.

#1 Carleton Ravens – (OUA 0-0, Overall 10-1) (LW: NR)

The Carleton Ravens once again open up the 2014-15 rankings looking down at the competition thanks to arguably their most successful preseason to date during the Dave Smart era. The Ravens who are no strangers to beating NCAA opposition ripped off four straight victories over division one teams back in August, roasting the Memphis Tigers twice  (86-76, 92-60) and set the largest margin of victory (32) over a NCAA team.

Carleton’s lone loss came at the hands of an angry Indiana Hoosiers squad that wanted no thoughts of entertaining a 0-2 start during the 2014 Canadian trip. Although the Ravens were without three-time league MVP Philip Scrubb and head coach Smart during the loss, the opportunity provide us with an early look at the Ravens post the Philip Scrubb era.

The ten-time CIS Men’s basketball champions look better than ever and are once again the leading candidates to extend their dominance of the Canadian University basketball landscape, led by the Scrubb brothers, Carleton the four-time defending champions look meaner than ever as they look to win a fifth-straight National title since Dave Smart took over the program 16 years ago in 1999. Yes, that would be 11 championships in 16 seasons for Dave Smart!

Top players: Phillip Scrubb, Thomas Scrubb, Jean-Emmanuel Pierre-Charles, Connor Wood, Victor Raso
Key preseason victories: Vermont Tigers (NCAA D1), Illinois-Chicago Flames (NCAA D1), Memphis Tigers x 2 (NCAA D1), Victoria Vikes, Alberta Bears, Acadia Axemen
Key preseason losses: Indiana Hoosiers (NCAA)

#2 Ottawa Gee-Gees – (OUA 0-0, Overall 9-1) (LW: NR)

There’s no team across the CIS that is more tired of all the “Carleton this, Carleton that” talk than the Ottawa Gee-Gees, after-all the crosstown-rivals along with the rest of the league have become somewhat of a practice field for the Ravens since the Dave Smart domination began.

The Gee-Gees are coming off the programs most successful season and are looking to return to the National title game after coming-up short against big brother Carleton last year. Ottawa returns four starters and head coach James Derouin and his staff brought in a strong recruiting class with hopes of earning the schools first ever basketball banner.

After tasting last years success Derouin and his crew established the mindset of a championship team and opened-up the preseason with a goal of winning all their NCAA preseason games. The Gee-Gees shocked the entire North American college basketball landscape by earning a signature win against one of college basketball’s all-time greats, when it knocked-off the Indiana Hoosiers 105-95 in Montreal.

Ottawa’s lights-outs three-point shooting barrage is led by fifth-year senior and first-team All-Canadian guard Johnny Berhanemeskel, who much like Phillip Scrubb will be playing with a chip on his shoulders as they make their swan song and look to cement their names as their schools best ever basketball talents.

Top players: Johnny Berhanemeskel, Caleb Ageda, Mike L’African, Mehdi Tihani, Gabriel Gonthier-Dubue, Gill Vikas, Alex Ratte, Mohammed Ismail
Key preseason victories: Indiana Hoosiers (NCAA D1), Vermont Tigers (NCAA D1), Illinois-Chicago Flames (NCAA D1), ST. F.X, McGill Redmen, Bishops Gaiters, Toronto Blues
Key preseason losses: Memphis Tigers (NCAA D1)

#3 Ryerson Rams – (OUA 0-0, Overall 7-0) (LW: NR)

It’s now or never for Ryerson! The Rams surprised everybody by earning a berth in the 2012 CIS Final 8 for only the second time in school history. Ryerson bid and secured the hosting rights for the prestigious national event and will host the 2015 CIS Final championships in their beautiful home facility at the Mattamy Athletic Centre in downtown Toronto. With the automatic bid guaranteed at the national showcase the pressure to get there is somewhat removed and if things align for Ryerson it could just be the beginning of massive shift from Ottawa to Toronto down highway 401.

Unlike last year the Rams opted for lighter NCAA preseason schedule, instead they focused on playing tougher CIS teams and have come away with a perfect 7-0 record to start the season. Now in his sixth season head coach Roy Rana has slowly but steady improved and turned the program into annual national contender by increasing his teams regular season win count ever year since he assumed responsibilities of the team back in 2009.

Ryerson returns an experienced and talented group that features All-Canadian candidate point guard Jamal Jones and former NCAA player Kadeem Green (Missori Tigers/Ohio bobcats) who made an immediate impact last year, the Rams roster is deep and well rounded with talent, length and athleticism at almost every position.

Top players: Jamal Jones, Kadeem Green, Aaron Best, Adika Peter-McNeilly, Jordan Gaunthier, Jean-Victor Mukama
Key preseason victories: Saskatchewan Huskies, UNB Varsity Reds, Fraser Valley Cascades, McGill Redmen
Key preseason losses: None

#4 Windsor Lancers – (OUA 0-0, Overall 10-0) (LW: NR)

The Windsor Lancers along with the Ottawa Gee-Gees and Carleton Ravens were the only teams to knock-off a NCAA division one team during the preseason. The Lancers program under the tutelage of Chris Olivier are no strangers to national attention and have become one the most consistent teams across the country posting 15-plus conference wins dating back to the 2006-07 season.

Windsor is once again expected to challenge for a nationals berth and boost a strong roster that returns seven veterans as well as key transfers that are set to make the Lancers a contender despite the loss of  some major talent both in the back-court (Josh Collins, Enrico Diloreto) and front-court with former OUA West defensive player of the year in Lien Phillip. Look for Windsor to play a fast pace up-tempo transition game led by their solid wings in Rotimi Osuntola Jr. and Bradford Parker who both love to play above rim and slash to basket.

#5 McMaster Marauders – (OUA 0-0, Overall 7-1) (LW: NR)

The McMaster Mauraders are coming off a successful 2013-14 season with a 18-4 conference record, posting their most win totals since 2002-03 when former head coach Joe Raso took the program to CIS Final 8 quarterfinals.

Entering his sixth season, head coach Amos Connolly is looking to repeat the magic with arguably the most talented team in the country. The Marauders return all their starters and have taken full advantage of the newly instated CIS/NCAA transfer rule which allows current NCAA division one athletes to transfer to the CIS without being forced to sit-out a year with signing of Troy Joseph (LUI Blackbirds).

#6 Cape Breton Capers – (AUS 0-0, Overall 7-1) (LW: NR)

The surprise of the 2014-15 BasketballBuzz CIS Top 25 rankings has to be Cape Breton. The Capers are coming off their worst season since 2002-03 they were hit hard by the graduation bug after the lost of former All-Canadian PG Jimmy Dorsey who led the school to the top of the national rankings with a 19-1 season in 2012-13.

With a near perfect preseason record the Capers look like the early favorites to capture the AUS crown and make a return trip to the Final 8. The improved play of 6’8″, 265 pound mammoth Meshack Lufile will be something to watch as the season progresses, if the fourth-year senior can stay out of foul trouble it could be solid season for Capers Nation!

Top players: Meshack Lufile, Seth Amoah, Arild Geugjes, Sean McCormick, Cedric Kasongo, Kayon Mayers
Key preseason victories: UPEI Panthers, UNB Varsity Reds, St. FX X-Men (2x), Calgary Dinos

#7 UBC Thunderbirds – (CW 0-0, Overall 6-2) (LW: NR)

The Thunderbirds are loaded with talent and length at nearly every position giving Head coach Kevin Hansen a bevy of options and the ability to unleash a variety of different looks causing mismatches. Junior Forward Conor Morgan has the ability to take over a game should be considered a serious threat to win the Canada West Player of Year  award and hopefully some additional hardware for the UBC.

Top players: Conor Morgan, David Wagner, Tommy Nixon, Brylle Kamen, Jordan Jensen-Whyte, Tonner Jackson
Key preseason victories: Seattle Mountaineers, Western Mustangs, Waterloo Warriors, Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks
Key preseason losses: vs. Detroit Mercy, vs. Windsor Lancers

#8 Saskatchewan Huskies – (CW 0-0, Overall 6-2) (LW: NR)

There’s no doubt as to who has been the most dominate program over the past decade, Carleton Ravens aside, the Saskatchewan Huskies have arguably been the most successful, consistent and exciting CIS Men’s basketball program over last ten years winning their first ever championship in 2009-10.

Head coach Barry Rawlyk has quietly build himself the resume in five short seasons with an impressive overall record of 116-35 (.768) which only trails Dave Smart amongst active head coaches and his absurd 92.9% winning percentage. The Huskies are looking for back to back appearances at the big dance after falling short last year in national quarter-finals to the Ottawa Gee-Gees. Rawlyk returns all but one starter on a team that features one of the toughest front courts in the country in Dadrain Collins, Matt Forbes and Connor Burns.

Top players: Dadrain Collins, Matt Forbes, Connor Burns, Ben Baker, Andrew Henry, Evan Ostertag
Key preseason victories: MacEwan Griffins (x2), Guelph Gryphons, Victoria Vikes
Key preseason losses: @Ryerson Rams, @Toronto Blues

#9 UNB Varsity Reds – (AUS 0-0, Overall 8-2) (LW: NR)

Never underestimate the  impact that an All-Canadian player can have on a program. The Varsity Reds are on the rise thanks to the addition of 2013-14 CIS Rookie of the year Javon Masters, who last year become the first true freshman to ever lead the country in scoring by unloading a 27.4 clip per game on AUS opposition.

Masters rookie campaign helped him rack up the awards, second-team All-Canadian, All-rookie team, school athlete of the year and more. Unfortunately the individual success didn’t translate to the ultimate team goal, as UNB struggled in the second-half of the season with 4-10 record and eventually lost in the AUS quartefinals in heartbreaking fashion to the St. FX X-men.  A promising preseason schedule and solid returning line-up have the Varsity Reds eying their first trip to nationals since 2004.

Top players: Javon Masters, William McFee, Nikola Mandic, Jordan Irvine, Matthew Daley
Key preseason victories: UPEI Panthers (2x), Calgary Dinos, Holland College Hurricanes, UQAM, Toronto Blues, York Lions

#10 St. Mary’s Huskies – (AUS 0-0, Overall 5-2) (LW: NR)

The defending AUS championships are once again out to proof that last year AUS run and Final 8 appearance wasn’t a fluke. Third-year head coach Jonah Taussig returns three-starters including a talented backcourt duo of Marquis Clayton and Theon Refeer. The Huskies like to get up and down in transition and with an overall lack of size in the conference don’t be surprised to see St. Mary’s back in the national spotlight come March.

Top players: Theon Reefer, Brian Rouse, Jeremy McAvoy, Marquis Clayton, Kadeem Scott, Achuil Lual
Key preseason victories: York Lions, UQAM Citadins, Wilfred Laurier Hawks, Holland College Hurricanes

Led by exciting fifth year point guard and conference MVP candidate Jarred Ongunbemi-Jackson the Dinos will be competitive and challenge for a playoff spot in the always tough Canada West.

13. Manitoba Bisons (CW 0-0, Overall 5-2) (LW: NR)

Key preseason losses:UNBC Timberwolves

14. Lakehead Thunderwolves (OUA 0-0, Overall 5-4) (LW: NR)

#15 Alberta Golden Bears – (CW 0-0, Overall 4-4) (LW: NR)

The Golden Bears are coming off a well deserved CIS Bronze Medal thanks to a 20-2 conference and 38-7 overall record. Head Coach Barnaby Craddock had a definite case for Canada West coach of the year last year and will be tough pressed to repeat last years success due to the graduation of All-Canadian forward Jordan Baker. Still some promising pieces remain and as long as Alberta stays healthy you can expect them to be in the running for another deep Canada West title.

#16 Victoria Vikes – (CW 0-0, Overall 4-3) (LW: NR)

Head coach Craig Beaucamp hasn’t had a losing season since he took over the Vikes in 2003. During that stretch he has guided Victoria to four CIS Final 8 appearances in 2005, 2006 and now the past two seasons. Yes the Vikes three-preseason losses came at the hands of Carleton, Saskatchewan and Alberta, all top competition, but their wins weren’t that impressive either. 6’10’ forward Chris McLaughlin will shoulder the workload inside while Seattle duo of Marcus Tibbs and Kai Green will handle the majority of the point guard duties.

Key preseason victories: Bishop’s Gaiters, Fraser Valley Cascades, MacEwan Griffins
Key preseason losses: Alberta Golden Bears, Carleton Ravens, Saskatchewan Huskies

#18 Mcgill Redmen – (RSEQ 0-0, Overall 4-9) (LW: NR)

The preseason wasn’t kind to the McGill Redmen or any of the other RSEQ teams. Head Coach David Deaveiro put together arguably the toughest preseason schedule to date in hopes that it will translate to a third straight trip to nationals. The two-time defending Quebec champs are still the favorites in a division that only features five teams and could use a complete overhaul in the upcoming years.

#19 Brandon Bobcats – (CW0-0, Overall 5-4) (LW: NR)

The Bobcats have yet to have a winning season under head coach Gil Chueng who took over in 2010. Brandon will need to play inspired basketball all-season long if they want to stay close to a Canada West playoff spot. Look for  6’5′ guard/forward  American import Earl Thompson Jr. (Henderson, NV) to have a breakout year.

Top players: Earl Thompson Jr., Denham Buchanan, Ali-Mounir Benabdelhak, Mikee Dosado
Key preseason victories:
Algoma Thunderbirds, Acadia Axemen (2x)

Key preseason losses:  Memorial Seahawks, St. Mary’s Huskies, Dalhousie Tigers, UBC Thunderbirds

After spending the past three seasons developing a nucleus around Nick Tufegdzich (13.4 PPG/10.4 RPG), Daniel Tulloch (18.7 PPG) and Ryan Ejim (15PPG/7.7RPG), they will need find another scoring option as Ejim decided to transfer to the Carleton Ravens, leaving a huge scoring load to fill for a team that averaged over 80 points per game.

The Concordia Stingers are looking to regain their usual spot as Quebec’s top team, unfortunately things haven’t been easy since the arrival of David Deaveiro at McGill. The Stingers are extremely young with only one fifth-year player logging significant minutes in Mukiya Post it could be another long season for head coach John Dore. The Stingers will rely on some key transfers (Jean-Louis Wanya, Ken Beaulieu) to lead them back to relevancy.
