We Are #108

Rivals.com has ranked Marshall at 108th in it’s 347 countdown, ranking every Men’s division one basketball team for 2010. This is what Rivals.com had to say about Marshall:

108. Marshall
CONFERENCE: Conference USA
BEST PLAYER: G Damier Pitts
QUICK TAKE: The Thundering Herd have the talent to get to 20 wins and into the postseason - not the NCAA tournament, though.
BUZZ: Coach Donnie Jones enters his third season with a team that holds a lot of intrigue. The Herd lost just one starter, but it was leading scorer Markel Humphrey. But there's a top-notch recruiting class, headed by 6-11 center Hassan Whiteside, the No. 87 prospect in the nation. The Herd were brutal on the perimeter last season, making just 31.7 percent of their 3-pointers and allowing foes to hit 39.8 percent. Whiteside adds another dimension to the team and gives the Herd an inside presence they desperately lacked last season.
