I don't watch enough CBB anymore to really speak to the ranking but I figured I'd post the blurb on Hinson since I found it very accurate from a national writer in Vecenie...

Hinson had to be the least talked-about awesome player in college hoops last year, leading Pittsburgh to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Going back to his days at Ole Miss, Hinson has always been a real mismatch nightmare, a physical 6-7 bowling ball who is a bit too quick to be guarded by bigs, but too strong for guards when they get switched onto him. He averaged 15.3 points and six rebounds on his way to All-ACC status a season ago, and figures to have an even bigger role in 2023-24 following the departures of
Nelly Cummings,
Jamarius Burton and
Greg Elliott. Pitt’s season will probably come down to how ready Carlton Carrington is to lead the offense and run the show in the backcourt for the
Panthers. However, with Hinson around, the team should at least have a primary wing creator to rely on nightly.
