Kansas Men’s Basketball Ranked No. 17 in Preseason AP Poll
Kansas men's basketball has been ranked No. 17 in the Preseason AP Poll.
Topeka, KS, October 19, 2026 —
Kansas men’s basketball has been ranked No. 17 in the Preseason AP Poll, placing the team at that position in the poll before the season begins.
The ranking is the central detail provided about Kansas in the preseason poll. The available information does not identify the season, the date the poll was released, the teams ranked above or below Kansas, or the number of votes the team received. It also does not include details about Kansas’ roster, coaching staff, schedule or expectations for the season.
A preseason ranking records a team’s position in a poll ahead of the season’s games. It is not, on its own, a report of results from games played during that season. The No. 17 designation indicates Kansas’s place in this particular poll, but the information provided does not explain how voters arrived at that position or offer comparisons with other rankings.
No additional poll results or statements from the program were included in the available summary. Accordingly, the ranking can be reported, while further context—including the full poll and the season to which it applies—remains unspecified.
