  1. Bracket Challenge 2019

    I look forward to doing it every year. I’m in a 2 entry 25$ buy in with 400 entries and call my dad more thirst two weeks than probably the rest of the year. 4 calls already just today lmao I won money a few years back so it’s hard not to like. Do a regular pool and a players pool as well. Pick...
  2. Bracket Challenge 2019

    It’s why I love survivor pools. You root for one team to win and literally everyone else to lose. It’s a pessimists wet dream That and the 10k pot
  3. Bracket Challenge 2019

  5. Bracket Challenge 2019

    2015 had a major injury 2018 had a major injury 2019- no major injury elite 8 lock for sure
  6. Bracket Challenge 2019

    This is also the first year Bennett’s been here that they haven’t had a starter out for injury IIRC. They have had piss poor luck in terms of that.
  7. Bracket Challenge 2019

    ACC was more top heavy. No real middle of the pack this year which hurts at large bids
  8. Arrests coming due to college bball kickbacks

    Rumor mill: According to a Brandon Lang (website being his name, it looks like a Perez Hilton version of ESPN) Bill self to potentially be out at Kansas at the end of the year to head back to Illinois (lol) but to coach the Bulls. NBC also reported it (saying it was reported on dude in questions...
  9. Miami

    Best pitching for a GT team in probably 10 years
  10. Recruiting rankings: then vs. now

    this is pretty common across college football in general now though with new transfer rules. UGA's '13 class didn't even have 20% of its class make it on campus, and even fewer made it to graduation at uga.

    RIP to all of us who have invested in NovaVax lmao
  12. S&P 2019 season projections

    i mean they are going to have a spring game to work with, and will probably have old temple footage as well. Hopefully its a pretty vanilla game, but we'll know by the spring game what to expect
  13. Reservations for this season

    I view next season similarly to Pastners first season. On paper, it has the potential to be pretty rough, based off graduation and transfers. If we want a surprisingly good season, we will need a few players to have breakout seasons, a la Okogie, Lammers, and Tadric being a great 6th man. Since...
  14. S&P 2019 season projections

    There is a ton of data behind showing correlations between prior year performance and returning starters to make a reasonable assumption about it. Most major rankings didn’t start using it until a few years ago, and it’s not like they would be using it if it didn’t make their rankings more...
  15. Atlanta Legends - 7 former Yellow Jackets

    Full time jobs Local players hopes to get more local support, which increases buy in Most money comes from TV, which Off season games have to take place to work. Main competition is March madness which has been killer to everybother league. TV ratings were solid, just beyond the UvA duke game...
  16. S&P 2019 season projections

    Agree about rankings getting blurry the further away from the top. The weighting of recent recruiting classes is his attempt to show that needs filling. Returning production is far and out the highest predictor, and it effect defense way more than it does offense. Losing 8 starters on defense...
  17. S&P 2019 season projections

    Not saying i disagree, but his rankings do only account the last 5 years, which do take into account that 3-9 season, 9-4.5-6, and 7-6 seasons. They obviously get better with more data, and UNC gets their coastal title, as does VT, Miami, and Pitt. GT does not get their last one in there...
  18. S&P 2019 season projections

    https://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2019/2/11/18219163/2019-college-football-rankings-projections As everyone knows, Bill Conley posts annual predictions, and his first round of 2019 predictions is up. GT comes in at 89th and dead last in the ACC, as well as behind every single team that...
  19. Implications of GT being relevant in recruiting

    You can boast about academics and the chance to make the NFL. They aren’t mutually exclusive. It’s how they are marketed. Not in a you won’t make the NFL as a 1.9% chance that college athletes make it so get a useful degree for that 40 year plan. It’s more of a you’re talented enough to play at...
  20. NCAA’s estimated probability of competing in professional athletics

    Thing is not all power 5 kids are draft eligible as you are implying. People transfer, quit, or never make it into campus. Techs senior class this year only has 11/18 of its original members. 2 of them making it would be over 16% so the math checks out. The number in arena and CFL is also a lot...
