Sucks for UNF but also feels like a weird move when Tang seems like his seat is pretty warm in the little apple.

Tanking is not what has hurt the league. It's the quality of play, the obnoxious amount of foul calls, the flopping and flailing from the players, and the complaining. Catering everything to the star players at the expense of the quality of the game itself is not a good way to operate. Not...

There might be an argument, though, that had we played that schedule and gone 6-5 we would've been better prepared and therefore performed better in conference. I get this is all a theoretical argument, but part of our struggles in conference - in my opinion - is the shellshock from the jump in...

It seems like you don’t believe in advanced analytics in sports, which is fine. But allow me to explain why the stat I shared is more valuable (and different) than just a pure plus/minus statistic. Plus/minus is just the cumulative that the team does while the player is on the floor. So if the...

You conveniently did not respond to my last message about their stats, but breaking things down to a simplified per-minute production fails to look at a lot of things. The overwhelming majority of the advanced stats favor Wague for the entirety of the season with an on/off net rating...

Man, I'd love to believe we are capable of a top 5 SEC finish but I just don't see it. This team is much more talented/deeper than last year's team. But this team also will not have a lottery pick on it. Not to mention, the SEC is still going to be ridiculous next year even if it isn't as good...

That may all be true, but you can present stats in a way that may not depict the full picture. For example: Wague was better than Godwin in eFG% (72.3% vs 59.3%), Offensive Rebound % (19.2% vs 15.9%), Free Throw % (65.4% vs 56.3%), Assist % (10.9% vs 8.1%), and Steal % (4.2% vs 2.7%). In all of...

My untrained eye would agree with this. However, I'd say he's probably a little less athletic than Otega with a better looking shot

This is just one piece to a massive puzzle. How many people have dogged on Coach Cal over the past few years at Kentucky and even during this year at Arkansas for doing less with more? Recruiting is crucial, but if it doesn't translate to the court it doesn't mean much. I'm just as excited as...

Nebraska in a game away from Norman certainly would be better than Popcorn State at home. That is true.

I'm not saying he's a surefire pro, but he is much more likely to hit at the NBA level than guys like Oweh or Moore. That's why he's so much higher on big boards than they are

He has the prototypical size for his position, he can guard multiple positions well in the NBA, he is a very good passer and simultaneously very good at protecting the ball, and lastly he's developed into a good shooter. He projects to be a pretty decent role player if he rounds out his game. It...

Just read through it myself and his conclusions were that recruiting guys that will play multiple seasons with you is super important, whether that be freshman or transfers. He also noted that only teams with elite freshman AND top returners perform well. Teams that try to rely solely on...

A&M has been better the past couple of seasons, but just lost the coach that brought all of that success. Granted, I love the hire they made but who knows how Bucky adjusts to high major play. A lot more room for Duke to squeeze himself into a starting line up with so much unknown and volatility...

I think I agree with you but that is a LOW bar. And it also depends on Rogers as a freshman outproducing Godwin as we stand today because we haven’t really added anyone else
