There has been a lot of discussion in various threads about GTAA finances, and in particular the outstanding debt and the payments due in the near future. Some of this is based on outdated data, and rather than try to respond in multiple places I thought I'd start a new thread specifically on...
I think this is very true. Pastner has on multiple occasions shown the ability to make in-season adjustments to maximize the talents and capabilities of his players. I don't think the staff has been great at figuring that out before the season which is a definite weakness.
This is a very naive...
One area where I think he improved during he season was that early on he would drive to the rim and miss or get blocked. It seemed to me that in the games just before he was injured he improved on that. I don’t remember the specifics, just noting that he wasn’t getting caught underneath.

I’m sure a legal interpretation of his contract is that we are not paying him to be A coach, we are paying him to be the HEAD coach. Demoting him is firing him from that position, and would trigger the buyout.

@gt24 was referencing the graphics he started this thread with, from a site called Shot Quality. They apparently have a complex formula, described as follows:
I have no idea whether they actually have sufficient data to measure what they claim. However, their result shows that GT is taking very...
In thinking about this more, I suspect these charts classify good shots/bad shots independent of the shooter. In an earlier chart posted by this Twitter account Moses was in a quadrant of “should shoot more 3 pointers”.
So part of it might be we have lineups whose range doesn’t extend to the 3...
I agree that this must be part of the explanation. Here’s a chart posted Feb 2nd with GT detailed, only 5 games charted whereas Gonzaga had 15 charted.
In your earlier analysis you assumed that since he played the season he was an eligible student athlete under the NC law, which does seem like a reasonable assumption. However, in the article, from the plaintiff’s lawyer, their position is:
which also seems reasonable. :)
Also, although I’m...
Northeastern University is refunding a proportionate share (6 weeks out of 16) of housing and meal plan costs. I was actually surprised that they made this decision. No idea what their financials look like at the moment.
