They went 16-0 in conference last year and ran through their league.

If you bring back a lot of starters and you did well, reasonable chance success can be replicated. Scoochie, Cooke, Pollard and Davis came back after their junior season. Reasonable to assume they'll do it again

Kentucky shelled out one of the biggest guarantees in the country this year to get them. Marquette payed big money to buy them too

Neil isn't the only AD in America who knows how to schedule
Vermont was ended up with an RPI of 60 so they paid big bucks for a quad 2 win. When was the quadrant system introduced? Did Kentucky and Marquette know about it when they scheduled Vermont? The scheduling of Vermont may have been more about RPI.

The reality is that the likes of Vermont is who we may have to start doing H/H series with in OOC. The problem is the number of this "locks" are limited and many schools will be trying to get them.
