## Resource

I’m back on the AP Top 25 panel for Illinois — and this time, I’m dropping my own Top 40 countdown before the official preseason poll. This week: James Madison, led by new coach Bob Chesney, who’s already drawing comparisons to Curt Cignetti — and UCLA’s Nico Iamaleava, primed to breakout with a fresh coaching staff and a soft schedule. If UCLA stays hot, they’ll challenge Oregon at Autzen in October — a must-watch test for the new regime. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
