Ranking Every 2015-16 Big East Men's Basketball Player In Order Of Interest

And by interest, I mean my interest in seeing them play.

Kris Dunn isn't the top player on the list, but he is the top returner.

Let's set down a few ground rules on this list.

  • It's based on how much I'm looking forward to seeing them play in the Bradley Center from an objective perspective, so I'm ignoring things like "Kris Dunn scares the living beejeezus out of me."
  • Keeping that in mind, newcomers to the Big East get the advantage over returning players, which is why Jalen Brunson beats out Josh Hart, for example.
  • My objectivity only lasts so far, which is why Christian Haffner is beating out a bunch of people.
  • This is totally arbitrary, so have fun trying to argue this with me.
