    Texas' non con schedule, while not strong, was nowhere near as weak as TCU's and their other metrics were better. But even if you want to include them in the same group as TCU it doesn't really change the overall point. The Big 12 got two marginal teams in same as the ACC in that case. The...

    Except you are using conference wide numbers as a whole which implies that the performance of Kentucky, or any other team that got in, somehow is reflective of the conference not deserving as many invites. However, Kentucky's performance is theirs alone. Just like UVA's complete bombing isn't...

    UNC making the Sweet 16 is not an argument that Pitt deserved to be in the tournament. That's an UNC accomplishment, not a Pitt one. Conferences don't play the games. Kentucky losing to Oakland is funny but there is no argument that Kentucky shouldn't have been in the tournament so how is...

    I'm not sure which is worse, trying to use a single elimination tournament to make a claim about the overall level of competition between conferences or trying to use results from 5+ years ago to make an argument about why teams this year should have been gotten in instead. The next closest...
  5. Coaching Carousel 9 - People die climbing mountains

    IMO more likely SMU trying to throw its money around when making a jump in conferences combined with Enfield seeing the writing on the wall at USC. He has been pretty good but also been there 11 years without any real outstanding success. Eventually a finishing 2nd or 3rd in conference and...

    It's not like all of the auto bid teams are having some great seasons and do anything particularly noteworthy to deserve a spot For instance, Stetson was 19-13 overall and played 25 Q4 games, and lost 8 of them. They are in the tournament because they beat Queens (NET 268), Jacksonville (NET...
  7. Bracket Challenge

    Yeah, real low seeds (12 and up) historically have no chance of making the final four. But that group is almost exclusively auto bids from low and mid major conferences. The lack of success of that group isn't really a justification for the stance of mid pack p6 teams not going further than...
  8. Bracket Challenge

    Here are the point differentials for the top 3 seed so far. +16 +28 +25 +20 +34 +16 -4 The reality is the really low major conference winners are very often not competitive and a middle of the road team like Wake would have a better chance of making a run. But individual games like Oakland...
  9. My way too early, possibly problematic look at potential GT Hoops roster management

    Moore transferred because he was told he'd be getting 5 minutes some games which is a coaches way of telling him to go elsewhere. Not sure where you got the idea that Smith was gone by the time CDS got here. Smith entered the portal a month after CDS was hired. He was a two time transfer and...

    It doesn't tell the story you made up in your head.
  11. MBB - 🤞 Clemson 2/21 GAME THREAD.

    These were posts i made from last year In regards to pastner. In response to why we were strugging on offense last year. In response to someone claiming we got outrebounded because a lack of heart. In response to a claim that we would need Howard for defense and rebounding. From a...
  12. MBB - 🤞 Clemson 2/21 GAME THREAD.

    It's 100% a deflection to bring up Pastner here. You can't even pretend that CDS takes any responsibility after losses. But since you brought it up, Pastner won ACC CotY for greatly overperforming with the group that he inherited instead of throwing them under the bus after every loss. He...
  13. MBB - 🤞 Clemson 2/21 GAME THREAD.

    Nice deflection bud. Guess it's too much to ask of CDS to take some responsibility for the team he is the head coach of.
  14. MBB - 🤞 Clemson 2/21 GAME THREAD.

    It's always funny how standards and high expectations are only ever a thing that relates to the players and never the coach.

    "When I get my guys up in here it's going to be different" says about all that needs to be said.

    Wait, so you point to me not being at practice against the idea of him quitting on the team, which btw is never used against anyone who claims players quit, and then turn around and pretend to know what the players have been told their entire lives? What is stupid, and frankly sickening is...
  17. Jackets Travel to Louisville, 2/10/2024, MBB

    Lol nitpicking like I didn't post direct quotes of his. He even doubled down after the game and said he hadn't watched much Louisville. It is just straight up hypocritical to say you don't care about your opponent before the game and then say all you care about is the team following the...
  18. Jackets Travel to Louisville, 2/10/2024, MBB

    It's about the hypocrisy of before the game making a big deal about not worrying about the opponent and then after the game saying all you care about is the scouting report.
  19. Jackets Travel to Louisville, 2/10/2024, MBB

    Ironically, in the post game, this was an actual quote from him. "You got to pay attention to detail. You got to pay attention to the scouting report. That's all I care about.".
  20. Jackets Travel to Louisville, 2/10/2024, MBB

    Go listen to him talk. He tells on himself. What else would you call a coach flat out saying he wasn't going to watch our next opponents previous game (Wake against Cuse) or not worrying about our next opponent at all (UL)? How else would you interpret him saying there is no point in...
