We had the 22nd and 28th most valuable players in the country. "Nova had #85 and #144? How in the Wide World of Sports did we not win the Big East?

Mrs Hauser.
Every rating system has its limits. I find T-rank interesting, but am baffled how the system projects our offensive efficiency to increase and our defensive efficiency to decrease without the Hausers. Huh?

Nova practiced basketball, MU wrote letters. Or something.

Oh jeez, could it be because the next players after that were 611, 805 and 811?
While Villanova's were 83, 144, 282, 345, 380, 539
Nova with 6 players in the top 600....MU with 2.
More depth, better balance.
How in the wide world of sports were you not able.....nevermind
Some here called the #22 most valuable player a "cancer."
Good thing they aren't oncologists....

Proctologist?
Buzz had two guys in the top 50, but UNC only had one.....using Lenny Logic how did VPI finish behind UNC. And FSU had no one in top 50, but also finished ahead of VPI. Doh.

Looks like balanced teams win that have solid play from all. Should not be surprising.

Exactly my point. When was the last time MU had two players in the top 30? My guess is Al McGuire was the coach and I was a young man. What a shame/waste that our two top players had such little help. And where will the help/depth come from this season?

From some combination of the 5 scholarship players on the roster this year that either weren't here last year, or ineligible for some reason or another.
Damn, I was legitimately wondering when the site updates for the 2020 season!

Oh really...that was your point.....but hey if you say that was the point then I believe you. I'm sure it wasn't a swipe at the coach you love, etc.....I just don't get how Buzz didn't do better with two top 50 guys when other ACC teams with less "studs" did better....so weird.
Let's argue Wojo vs Buzz vs Crean some more, because there are plenty of new and insightful points to make.

We are a Jesuit institution. That is why that dead horse keeps rising again.

Whose fault was it that the next guys were 611, 805, and 811? Our GM must really suck.

When you compare him to Jay Wright?
Yeah, fair enough, Wojo does suck compared to Jay Wright.

Jay Wright was the only coach in college basketball whose 3rd, 4th and 5th best players were better than 611, 805 and 811?

Cheeks could use a break from everybody not named Billy or Warrior Dad - but point well taken regardless.
That is one ugly website...

Don't know. Don't care. We're talking about how MU finished behind Nova in the BE, right? So Wojo vs. Wright, no?

Nope, but you made this about MU and Nova...then the data called you out for your improper usage...then you made a cute story about what you meant...and now the shovel in your hand has you digging further.
