Was just messing around with Kenpom (I have insomnia due to taking a steroid for a sinus infection... It�s been an awesome week of 4am productivity).
Tim Miles has Nebraska rolling.
Always thought of as a good coach, but was on the hot seat there as he struggled for years to get it going. 6th year was good. Year 7 off to a great start.
Just seems like an unusual ride.
Brad Brownell is another guy who hasn�t done much in the postseason, but his record of success over 9 years at Clemson is pretty consistent. No real breakout highs, but no disasters, either.
What I guess I�m saying is Danny Manning sucks as a head coach and I�m depressed about how shitty we are at basketball.
Merry Christmas
Seems like you’re saying Danny Manning is the next Tim Miles and we just need to give him a chance.
Have you tried taking all of the steroid doses for the day first thing in the morning? I used to have insomnia with steroids but I take them this way and I don’t have problems with it anymore.
Best Alternate Jerseys
Wake Forest (grey)
These are some of my favorite jerseys going. I love the grey color and throwback to the Duncan/Rodgers/Childress era with the shorts design.
Liberty beats UCLA. Handily.
Oats seem like a west coast guy?
And Princeton wins at Arizona State....I mean, the Pac-12 is guaranteed at least one bid this year, but I'm not sure who is really deserving of one at this point.
One interesting but somewhat depressing note is that very few college basketball teams finish their season with a win. Most conferences have a post season tournament. All but one team in each conference finishes with a loss.
Then those conference tournament winners are in the NCAA tournament wherein only one team finishes with a win.
Two other teams get final game wins in the NIT and CBI. The only other teams to finish with a win are some in conferences without a tournament. Those are the Ivy League and ???.
The Ivy League has a conference tourney now. It started a couple of years ago. Top 4 regular season teams make it. They play the semis and finals in the Palestra.
Would you feel better if WF finished 14th instead of 15th?
