As a college basketball fanatic, I am counting down until games tip off once again.

Today I celebrate the 100 day countdown until the Champions Classic. 

The Champions Classic will be the (un)official start to the college basketball season, as a yearly rotation of powers Kentucky, Kansas, Michigan State and Duke square off.

Matty D., yours truly, wanted to mark the countdown by getting insight from three of last season’s tournament teams.  I spoke with beat reporters who know these teams best.  Like most young basketball teams, all these programs are experiencing some transition this summer.  Watch then join the conversation by tweeting @CBBEyeTest or finding College Basketball Eye Test on Facebook and Instagram.
