Basketball is extremely mediocre

[UCFhonors]

Let's take a minute to look at the OPie and what the actual committee will look at.

The OPie is talking about KenPom ranking. Just like Jeff Sagarin - those are predictive analytics. Same kinda can be said about BPI. Form your own opinions, but I believe predictive analytics for sports are absolutely retarded. The other stats of NET, KPI, & SOR (strenght of record) are rankings of what a team has done.

So on the NET team sheets these are the stats on top of the page. Lets compare us to uf.

UCF 15-4
What we have done: NET: 42 ( KPI: 41, SOR: 52)
Predictive (BPI: 48, POM: 52, SAG: 42)

Florida 11-8 NET: 39
Accomplished: ( KPI: 68, SOR: 64)
Predictive(BPI: 26, POM: 26, SAG: 30)

Clearly our stats are pretty even across the board.

uf on the other hand has accomplished way less than us, but are predicted to be way way way way better in the future.


Other notables:
Florida St. 15-5 NET: 32 ( KPI: 27, SOR: 25) (BPI: 24, POM: 25, SAG: 23)
Cincinnati 18-3 NET: 23 ( KPI: 23, SOR: 28) (BPI: 23, POM: 24, SAG: 22)
Buffalo 19-2 NET: 18 ( KPI: 25, SOR: 13) (BPI: 22, POM: 18, SAG: 38)
Houston 20-1 NET: 8 ( KPI: 8, SOR: 11) (BPI: 20, POM: 20, SAG: 21) - Predicted to do much worse than what they have accomplished.

Alabama 13-7 NET: 43 ( KPI: 38, SOR: 44) (BPI: 47, POM: 47, SAG: 48)----- SOS is 83
Memphis 13-7 NET: 53 ( KPI: 63, SOR: 81) (BPI: 81, POM: 71, SAG: 62) ----- SOS is 46

Temple 15-5 NET: 60 ( KPI: 36, SOR: 43) (BPI: 64, POM: 75, SAG: 70)
Missouri 10-8 NET: 79 ( KPI: 78, SOR: 98) (BPI: 93, POM: 87, SAG: 77)


I'm not saying KenPom & Jeff Sagarin are complete BS, just that they have been bought by the ESP5N Cartel.

Women's bball now has the 17th best RPI, and 9 road wins. But I guess winning doesn't prompt posting or controversy.

To be fair I've tried to laud their season several times but there just isn't as much interest overall. I'm actually more excited about WBB than MBB this year which is weird.

That’s not the issue genius. White has the number 7 recruiting class coming in and has done well recruiting wise. So that eliminates your idiotic statement. The issue was expectations combined with a bad loss to South Carolina. Never mind the fact that white had the #1 team in the country on the ropes. Meanwhile Dawkins is losing to Wichita.

God damn some of you guys need to actually do research instead of listening to woman beating Bryan Gelfand and idiots like Ben Stout.

I don’t know who either of those guys are. But the issue isn’t expectations. It’s 8 losses already this year with more coming. Are you the White Family Cousin coming here to prop up your cousin so we aren’t mad when he’s hired?

Look, noob. You need to take about 3 steps back, and tone it down a bunch.

It really sounds like you jumped on the bandwagon in January 2019 and are already disappointed.

I was waiting for you to get em.

Never seen a noob come in here gun blazing and get a positive result. Thanks Honors for stating what everyone was thinking.

Another home win over UConn. UCF just needs to win them all at home and split on the road and they should get in.

Is "extremely mediocre" kind of like "Extra Medium"?

It’s like top 10% in RPI and best UCF team ever.

We now have a Quadrant 1 win! UConn has moved to #74 which makes our win there / away a Q1 win.

Our Net is sitll #44.

Cincy made too 25. The play Houston right after us.

Cincy made too 25. The play Houston right after us.

Hopefully Houston overlooks us since they play Cincy 2 days later.

Personally I invited several UCFriends to the Houston game and paid for their ticket. Got a good group going. I expect a great atmosphere.

Dang our schedule is back-end loaded. These final ten games will tell what our team is really made of.

IMHO jury still out on Coach Dawkins. All Donny's recruits are gone next year. I think next year we're barely .500

This would have been the year for Dawkins and the team to be the best ever (I know, there's still a lot of ball to be played).

Its metric, like "Liter of Cola"...
