Danny Manning Credibility Watch

Alright, Boston College is equal to Duke, Louisville, and Virginia.

I'm saying over Manning's entire tenure. Use ACC wins as a measure of progress, since OOC schedule varies so much from year to year. I think 6 is max this year, but I'm skeptical that Wake even gets 6.
 
Childress, I seem to recall that you are confident Wake will get 7 ACC wins. Care to wager?

I was just giving you a hard time. Also, the ACC scheduling is unbalanced as well, so that needs to be evaluated as well, but obviously it's closer than OOC.

Seems silly to use his entire tenure when we are trying to measure progress. Using ACC record would seem to dictate that you should hold off until end of season to evaluate Manning's progress in year 3.
 
I'd be willing to wager on both of our metrics. I'll take the over on 6.5 ACC wins if you take the over on 58 as our final KP rank (I.e. best team since '09).

I don't want to sound dismissive of advanced metrics (or Kenpom), because I'm not, but I don't really care what the final Kenpom rating is if it doesn't result in wins. Plus, I'm too lazy to try to project what the final kenpom would be based on different scenarios, so not interested in making a bet tied to that.

So 44 or 271, doesn't matter if we don't make the tournament? It's not helpful in predicting whether we might make it next year?
