It's that time already

Joel Welser @ College Sports Madness has UC Santa Barbara as #106 in the nation and #3 in the Big West Conference.

Some northern California-related tidbits:

"This time around UCSB will be looking to Gabe Vincent to emerge as the team’s go-to scorer. As a sophomore last year the 6-3 guard averaged 14.1 points and connected on 38.5 percent of his three-point attempts. Vincent is not just a shooter though and he can score by attacking the basket. He will be taking a bulk of the big shots for the Gauchos with most of the other proven scorers gone..."

"The 6-8, 265 pound forward [Jalen Canty] adds a much needed presence in the paint. Canty is the tough interior player UCSB needs. He can score in the paint, hit the glass effectively and block some shots."

The projected starting five:

Eric Childress, Senior, Guard, 6.6 points per game
Christian Terrell, Freshman, Guard, DNP last season
Gabe Vincent, Junior, Guard, 14.1 points per game
Maxwell Kupchak, Sophomore, Forward, 3.7 points per game
Jalen Canty, Junior, Forward, DNP last season
