The upcoming season, initial poll rankings

The new year in basketball may be quite interesting to me. Early rankings are out (based, of course on last year and who's coming back). Louisville, Kentucky and Indiana are rotated in most of the polls I've seen in one of the top 3 spots. It's been a long time since this triangle of teams were all at the top.
Apparently the hiring and sucess of Calipari at Kentucky has re-energized Rick Pitino at Louisville as his last few recruiting classes have been right up there; and, the crop for next year is very highly rated too. I think Rick wants a title before he retires from coaching.
And, Kentucky with it's 8th title last year is edging up on UCLA's 10 title record. If anyone can tie or exceed that record it might be John Calipari.
have fun, Swamp Daddy
