12. Villanova (29-5, 16-2): The Wildcats will lose one key cog in their three-headed monster of a backcourt. James Bell is gone, but Darrun Hilliard II (14.3 ppg) and Ryan Arcidiacono (9.9 ppg) are back. The key return is forward JayVaughn Pinkston (14.1 ppg, 6.1 rpg), who drove Villanova’s offense much of last season. Jay Wright will have a pretty strong group.

Recruiting grade: B
