Syracuse hiring Alex Kline as GM

[cusefan88]

Part of the reason it's hard to make predictions is there isn't not that much data. There aren't that many players playing games to count as "big data" not even close. Especially among players looking to transfer

It's very similar to euro soccer. Tons of different countries and competition levels to assess. Plus the fit into the buying teams squad.

No college program is going to get it right every year.

I UNDERSTAND WHAT KLINE'S ROLE FOR SU IS. I am literally just saying people are using him to justify keeping Red for year 3. He could be the best talent scout of all time, and I still don't think Red could get a team to the tournament.

And I'm sorry, are you saying I don't like Syracuse/enjoyed my time on the hill?

It’s amazing how quickly your schitzo rant changes subject when people continuously tell you you’re clueless. It took you ONE WHOLE post to move your goalpost. ONE.

Reading comprehension isn't your strong suit, that's fine.

How much data do you consider "big data"?

Most of the time people say this stuff, they're just using buzzwords. I would say when the data is too big and varied to structure and store in relational database

Basketball data is nowhere near that

OK, reason I ask is for context.

When I say "Big Data" I mean doing things with data beyond the traditional DB table structure or excel spreadsheet (not the actual size of the dataset.)

Algorithmic predicative analytics falls into that category.

Ha. Leffew is averaging 25.9 mpg at UGA.

These guys are very close in stats. Carlos appears to be the better distributor. I haven’t seen Leffew play so I can’t speak to his ability to defend.

Carlos stats:
6.4 PTS 150+
2.0 REB 150+
4.0 AST Tied-150th
40.7 FG%
28.2 MINS

Leffew stats:
9.7 PTS 150+
2.0 REB 150+
1.7 AST 150+
42.4 FG%
25.8 MINS

Heaven help us Alex. Apparently you are a miracle worker.

It is one thing to identify talent it is another thing to get talent to come to play for a coach that has shown zero ability to coach, a program that hasn't put a player in the NBA draft in over a decade, and since it has been on a steep decline the once loud fun place to play isn't that anymore. Not sure what Kline is supposed to sell. Hey we are middle of the pack in NIL so we have some funds to spend but we have to fill 6/7 roster spots, so here is a small piece of the pie and we play once a week on the CW. Oh and one of our incoming freshman players has a million followers on Instagram and was on SLAM magazine so you know...
