BobSaccamanno Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 I agree that I’m not in favor of NET relative to head to head. Having said that, as a program it’s your obligation to play the rules as they are set up. Get your efficiencies way up. Learn your lesson. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately we have a coach who is either willingly ignorant of how it impacts your team or is just too stubborn to adjust his approach. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indiana State did just that and Virginia, with a NET 40 spots lower, got the bid. Edited March 19 by 5fouls 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they got hosed. Money talks and that’s not ok. It’s sport. If you don’t have fairness, you have nothing. The NCAA has zero integrity.

13th&Jackson Posted March 19 Author Report Share Posted March 19 (edited) “I think the analytics are bulls—,” Providence head coach Kim English told reporters after his squad was ruled out. “I think you could schedule bad teams in your non-league and beat the snot out of them and beat them by 50 and 60. I think coaching for so long has been a gentleman agreement. I mean, you have a large lead at the end of the game, for health reasons you take guys out, to get some other guys opportunities to play, you take guys out. “ “But right now might be a change in college basketball. We’re scheduling to beat teams by 40 and 50. [It] might be a thing to do, but when you get into this league, the analytics aren’t going to look very good in league. You’re playing against some really, really good coaches.” Edited March 19 by 13th&Jackson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
