Why are the coaches picking EWU so high? Aren't they going through a coaching change AND didn't their leading scorer transfer?

1. They still have the other talented guards, and I think they got a notable transfer down low (I think he's eligible right away).

2. The Big Sky outside of Weber & Montana appears to be a clusterfuck of mediocrity. Well, aside from maybe ISU & Sac, who just look terrible. EWU definitely could be the third-best team, but has very little chance of supplanting the top 2.
