Patrick Stevens on Twitter

Are they ignoring it with Providence?

 

[Cuse House]

I'm worried that all of the analysts have us in but not many of the bracket people still have us in. The analysts are people who watch a ton of basketball (Bilas, Williams, Greenburg, etc). Let's hope the committee members have been paying attention. There is an interesting difference in those who watch many games, and those who stick to the numbers.

Stevens is usually very good at this, but he seems to have PC in and SU out for the same reason

 

[Cuse House]

Send us to Dayton and watch us make a run again.

This program has been in a free-fall since going 25-0 to start the season 4 years ago. We finished that year 3-6, the regular season for the last 3 years 18-13, 19-12, 18-13. That's the worst 3 year period in the 41 years Jim has been head coach. For a program as good as we think Syracuse is, that is not acceptable. Changes need to be made to get back where we belong, the recruiting needs to be improved, along with the coaching.

cool, this is a good thread for this!

 

[upperdeck]

ESPN also has SU at 11% chance to make the sweet 16 if they get in.

 

[pearl31]

I missed that.

But that's the 2nd part of the metrics. Where did you win.

Wake beat lvlle at home

Selfishly I really want to play in Dayton, as that is right by me. I can actually make a game this year!

 

[suorange08]

Lunardi says it has never happened. How can both disagree about a stat

From the thread yesterday, we found out that the 2011 Colorado team was one that had 6 top 50 wins. I am not sure of any others. Palm keeps changing his story as before it was every year one or two get left out. He should actually provide evidence for this nonsense.

It was - weird

 

[djorange1989]

Providence should be in. We should get in over Wake,USC and the A10 loser today. Or at least ONE of them!

I think Wake is in 100%. It will be USC if we get in I think

@Creighton

Creighton is KP #27. We beat KP #36 on the road. I don't think it should account for that much

 

[andyw715]

Well it's still snowing here in Wilmington NC so I would expect with 100% certainty that we are in as the last bye.

Hey my analysis/predicticating is just as likely as any of the professional "bracketeers" out there.

 

[Madbiker]

If Seth was on ESPN he would be saying Cuse is in. The CBS position is for everyone to back whatever Jerry Palm is saying.

Danny Hurley, forget modesty with that halftime interview haha.

"We're a great team."

"We're a great defensive team."

"We are healthy now."

Just shut up and win your game and you won't have to campaign.

Something about Hurley rubs me the wrong way. I don't like the guy for some reason

yeah Jim doesn't do that

Yeah he was trying too hard there, it was kind of annoying. You don't campaign in the middle of a freaking game. I hope they end up losing and being left out.

 

[Cuse House]

I hate when he does it too because the committee isn't going to be swayed by words. Coaches need to focus on the game and let everyone else worry about things.

Love Jim, but sometimes he just says too much.
