This makes for a fun debate. But when you take a step back and think about having 5 players in the Top 70, and I'm not sure that Darius Miller isn't getting a fair shake, it's another example of the talent Cal has put together.

CBSSPORTS.COM has five Cats with what they think of them. 

I'm not trying to sound like a homer, but Anthony Davis and Doron Lamb would be higher on my list.  And it's amazing how Darius Miller, who was the MVP of the SEC Tournament, and he is like the forgotten one.  Plus, it's obvious that Miller is in even better shape for his senior year and he's very focused.

7. Anthony Davis (freshman forward, Kentucky). Not sure there's anyone more versatile in the nation and that's why many NBA types have him pegged as the top overall pick in 2012.

11. Terrence Jones (sophomore forward, Kentucky). What's it tell you about Jones that he was humbled, accepts his faults, is on his way up ... and is still this high on the list? If he can learn to go right with consistency, look OUT.

16. Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (freshman forward, Kentucky). Do-it-all freshman could be a steadying influence for star-studded Wildcats.

48. Marquis Teague (freshman guard, Kentucky). A mix of the past two point guards that came through Lexington: Brandon Knight and John Wall. He's a pure point guard who is a blur.

69. Doron Lamb (sophomore guard, Kentucky). The freshmen will get most of the attention, but Lamb's shooting will be a key for the Wildcats.

Number one is Jared Sullinger from Ohio State. He'd love to get another shot at UK. That would make another great NCAA matchup.
