   Our model still has them in the NCAA Tournament. There’s a good chance the model’s wrong on that, or that it changes with today and tomorrow’s results, but their résumé’s more competitive than it’s being made out to be. Top 50 in NET/KPI/KenPom, 55th in SOR, 6-4 against Q1/Q2, 55th-ranked NCSOS, 16 games above .500…basically, there’s a chance, and I’d guess that the market’s right and our model’s wrong, but we don’t want to change the model just to follow the herd. That kind of defeats the purpose of doing this purely objectively.

If we don't make it to the Big Dance because we scored 36 in a loss to a 24-win La Tech but Iowa State gets in while having put up 36 in a 17 point loss to 15-win OK State 11 days ago, I'm not watching college basketball until Tuesday.
