Best of luck to coach drew . Make Schiano and RU fans proud in the NFL.

Schiano knows exactly what he is getting with Smith and Sparber seems like he is a good young coach with strong ties to north Jersey, I think we can safely trust Schiano’s judgement.

Vcu wins at Dayton

Lehigh loses outright.
Syracuse fails to cover.

Rutgers 74

Rutgers gets contributions from Hayes /Martini who have their shooting touch back

Yikes 0z GFS and Oz NAM

Also start time keeps getting pushed back...very short 8 hour duration tops

Finish the details too how Coen and his agent held the Bucs hostage to be the highest paid coordinator in the league. Then ghosted the team and neither one, he or agent, could be bothered to let the Bucs know he left.

Typical Warwick guy and I say that as someone who has known him since La Salle there. He’ll get his soon enough believe that.

Since WAB is specifically focused on being a +/- relative to a bubble team’s expectation it will work best when you are near the bubble.

It won’t differentiate too much from a SOS perspective between bottom feeder teams because those are all teams that a bubble team should beat like 98% or more. So it won’t have a lot of fidelity if you are using it to compare terrible teams.

Yeah if it was going to be used as a sorting tool it would have to shift at a certain point to compare vs a lower level school to get a clearer picture at the bottom Q3 vs Q4.

I just think it’s a way better metric to look at for evaluating teams for the tournament in general than blended efficiency. Your broadly misunderstanding that I’m not questioning the math rather I’m questioning the signficance of factoring in relative garbage time performance. When you play a lot of bad teams, a large chunk of possessions are played when the outcome is already decided. How a team does during that stretch doesn’t mean much in my opinion in terms of how good a team is. I also thing that facing some adversity and finding a way to pull out a tight win against a weaker team on a day things weren’t going well for you can be a sign of a good team too. To me - the goal should be an outcome based system that doesn’t do what RPI does and treat a road win over Central CT like a marquis win. WAB seems to try to do that at least in concept.

Johnnies 4/21 from three

Most were open also lol

That's okay.. if they go 6-1 the rest of the way at 23-6 they have a decent shot...starts tonight with road opportunity at Dayton..a borderline q1/2

Their sos ooc an issue. 11 wins in q4 but don't discount regular season titles in high mid majors

Their problem I think is that Dayton won’t be that if they absorb 2 VCU losses. So best case for VCU probably would be a split there and Dayton winning out the rest. But even with that, all they have otherwise is a home game with GM. That wouldn’t be a very strong 7 loss resume in my opinion. It’s not even so much that they didn’t beat good teams but rather, they didn’t even play them.

Division title or not I think they will find themselves in a high mid major version of the problem Rutgers would have in comparative loss count. They need to keep theirs below SF and the MWC 4-5th place teams because their schedule is weaker. Even Drake and Bradley played far less Q4 games.

The defense RJ Luis played vs Solo Ball in the second half was sick, completely removed him from the game. He's also completely emotionless, kinda scary.

That was unreal
