Michigan's slight edge in trader consensus stems from new coach Dusty May's Final Four pedigree at FAU and his aggressive portal hauls, bolstering a roster with elite shooters and defenders for the 2025-26 campaign. Arizona clings close behind via Tommy Lloyd's West Coast recruiting pipeline and returning core like Koa Peat, while Duke's Jon Scheyer leverages perennial blue-chip talent despite turnover. This top trio's bunching—under 3% spread—reflects offseason parity fueled by NIL-driven transfers, uncommitted 2026 recruits, and coaching carousel ripples, with no powerhouse yet emerging amid historical March volatility where mid-majors and upsets routinely reshape brackets.
