In response to rbg
On the other hand, Jackson has only played 12 minutes in the past 6 games and Sistare was out for the two most recent games.
Also, in Coach McLaughlin's first year, the team was ranked #280 at KenPom with 4 games to go (ending at #305). Last year, they were at #278 with 4 games to go (finishing at #299). This year, they are at #192. That's a pretty big jump, especially given the start of last season.
#192 definitely an improvement over previous years in the KP rankings. However, it still puts us at 6th in the KP rankings in the IL, yet we're tied for last as of Saturday. The league has gotten better and the rising tide is lifting the Big Green boat. I was secretly hoping, after our strong start, that we could have another shot at a post season berth like under Cormier. Right now I'm praying we win two or three more games to show year over year improvement in league. Last year we won 3 games in league and the year prior we won 4 games. Winning out the last games would be glorious, but that's asking too much of any higher power, but could happen.
