"UTEP is basically more of a loose loose scenario than anything in terms of seeding I think, meaning we don't gain much if anything from winning, but stand to loose a lot."

We dropped 4 spots in Kenpom too.
Oops.

They dropped some because they looked like $#!t. Not because of the opponent.

I don't disagree, but we did get win #19. One win away from setting the record for most consecutive 20 wins seasons as 32. Breaking a tie with UNC.

I'll take the drop of 4 spots to increase the chances of getting to 20 wins.

They dropped because of the opponent AND because they looked like shit.

Yea, that's what I meant/implied/was borrowing from MICH.
I didn't mean they weren't hot because they were.
Swoon.

Man, at least we can show we’ve improved about digging ourselves out of a hole?

But I think we should all be prepared to be playing from behind in the tournament. Ugh.

My B.U.D. has a theory Bill Self intentionally has us play poorly in the first half so that he can motivate our players in the second and 'lull' the other team into false confidence.
And then boom.

I don't think she's right by any means but it tracks.

Which is more impressive:

That a blowup doll can talk, and discuss nuanced basketball strategy?

Or that she can do all that with a full mouth either way?

I wouldn't call it nuanced.
Or even full.







We got Gradey Dick.

If Melo is in there then guys like Collison, Rush, Chalmers, TRob, Withey, Frank Mason, Vonte should be on there instead of Perry Ellis.

Perry Ellis has been to the tournament more than all the others combined.
