Message: [QUOTE="Sherman20, post: 5539056, member: 6357"] Actually our projected defensive efficiency rank is 100th in KenPom (projected offensive efficiency is 49th). Which would be a big improvement over the last few years when we were terrible, like sub-150 (207 in 2022,185 in 2023 and 152 in 2025). I think we’ll be better than 100. Hopefully closer to top 75 or maybe inside the top 50. We’ll see. In 2024, we finished 85th. That team had some good athleticism but was a mess as a team. I think this team is more athletic and experienced, seems to be developing better strength and conditioning, and should be able to defend. The offense should be much improved too—ideally in the top 50 or higher. [/QUOTE]
