I don't know what made a stronger impression.
For 37 minutes I think that really was the best I had seen any team play all year. They were not just hanging in with Kansas, but were controlling Kansas and managed to build what appeared to be a comfortable lead to where they could just cruise right in.
That was followed by the final three minutes of play, which would have made the Keystone Cops proud. I credit Kansas, but not as much as I discredit West Virginia."You can't fix stupid." Ron White

So how good is Gonzaga really? According to KenPom, the difference between #1 Gonzaga and #2 Villanova is approximately the same as the difference between #2 Villanova and #13 Wichita State. Anyone buying that?

I do believe that Gonzaga is quite good, though."You can't fix stupid." Ron White

Doesn't KenPom adjust though? I am honestly unclear on how he balances pure efficiency with schedule strength. Originally Posted by xubrew

Good question and good point. He does adjust it. I have no idea what the adjustment is and think it changes year to year. If you ask him he will explain it to you, and if you're like me he'll confuse the hell out of you before he even gets to his third sentence. Originally Posted by AviatorX

I like Archie, and I know I need to stop thinking of it this way, but when you have twice as much in the way of resources as everyone else in your league then you should be dominating it. So he's not really doing anything that is above expectations. It's just that his predecessor really stunk.Last edited by xubrew; 02-16-2017 at 02:28 PM.

When I type Gottfried on my iPhone it auto-corrects to "got fired." Siri knows.
