Oso planning to go pro
Finally! Someone acknowledges this! Thanks TAMU...you said it perfectly..They do about what you would expect them to, and no more. And I bet if you look back over Wojo's tenure, you will find similar results.
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.
Here are the numbers for KenPom Final top 25...overall I count 5-35 through last year. 15 - 0-1216 - 0-617 - 1-618 - 0-1019 - 4-1To-date we are 2-5 with Purdue counting (#25) and our butler split not counting (#27)...
Wow. Didn't think it was this bad. So, to present with this year added into the above, we are 6-40 against legitimate caliber Top 25 teams. And we are 6-22 during Markus's time here. He'll be a two time All-American. But...the "trajectory" is good. So. There's that.
I don't know what the records are but shouldn't you wait to see Crean and Buzz's before making judgements?
There is definitely something to be said for not losing to lessor teams. Don't underrate it.
2-5 this year, so 8-31. Not much better.However, 6-6 the past two years is totally fine. Need to maintain where we are now. Can't regress back to the year 1-4 performance.6-6 after a 2-25 start. That in itself is a good trajectory. Though I'll concede there was really nowhere to go but up from 2-25.
Well, you should go ahead and do the research and post it here. Though I suspect you already have. Then, if you would, post the records of Crean, Buzz and Wojo in the NCAA tournament.
Think your calculations may be wrong (mine were too). During the last three years, plus this year (Markus's last), we are 7-23 against Top 25.And sure, you can say we are 6-6 these last two years, yet 4-1 to present 2-5 this year, doesn't trend well. Additionally, I suspect we take a step back next year with Markus gone too.
You would be wrong as I don't have a Kenpom subscription hence the "I don't know" portion of my statement. How arrogant can you be?
One nit. The SOS of #4 you're referring to doesn't measure difficulty or 'toughness' of schedule. It's complete nonsense.We have had a relatively difficult schedule, but not top 5 by any reasonable measurement.
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
Not very. I'm sorry if I offended you. I assumed you had done the research - which ultimately shows the pretty stark contrast in "big games" between Wojo and our last two coaches.
8-31 against top 25 kenpom teams. Enough said, not even sure that qualifies for mediocrity status.
TAMUI think your post in fair in judgement for the most part. My only issue is that at some point we need to know the high water point. It keeps getting kicked down the can. When is enough time for you to judge if he hit the high water mark or not? It appears that next year will be another step backwards and then hoping the following year is an improvement. I have said all along I have no problem with things taking time if the end game looks much better than the previous six years.
