In response to 10Q
I'll give him credit--he is consistent. He said this pre-season:
" I will say this, what's more important, as is ultimately where you think they finish in Pomeroy or some other staty-typed model. Records can vary, but Pom is where it's at. So I'll say somewhere between 120-130."
Of course, most of us disagreed with his view, but it is his opinion. And in his opinion, underperforming in KenPom is more important than having a much better record and playing much better as a team on both ends. Of course, in his prior statement, he acknowledged not knowing or caring much about Penn's non-Big 5 opponents, which are the reason for its KenPom standing. Hard to say you don't care about the teams they are playing but do care about the ranking.
