Bart comment on RU
- Thread starter RUsojo
- Start date
According to me, Bart can **** off.
Unfortunately Bart is well regarded in the basketball community and you and I are irrelevant. Hopefully the committee agrees with you.
Look, anybody can find the metric to spin the narrative that they want. That’s just one. The committee will take everything into account.
does Bart know we are 8-6 vs field best on bubble...why doesnt he tweet that
We went 12-8 in conference and beat every team in the conference that will make the field. We didn’t feast on bottom feeders in conference. No other bubble team has half the quality wins we do.
Its not only damning but being announced now to reinforce the perception that Rutgers performed poorly aginst a mediocre out of conference schedule.Rutgers needs spokemen to argue the contrasting position extolling the number of quad 1 wins against ranked teams as compared to other bubble teams.
You guys are like click bait......these responses are like Dog-whistles that just add value and attention to these nobody metric geeks.
Ask Bart how many teams consistently get in that are 3 games over. 500 with a couple of quality wins.
If you want to parlay Vanderbilt winning the SEC tournament over vs Texas A&M in the SEC finals, Colorado winning the Pac 12, Virginia Tech winning the ACC, and Oklahoma winning the Big 12, then we can start worrying about things.

BREAKING NEWS
Our resume has a lot of really good and a lot of really bad

Now would be a very good time for someone to point out that our PG leader didn’t play in 2 of the 4 losses.
Michigan is only 3 games above .500 … there have been more extinction-level meteor strikes than teams 3 games above .500 in the NCAA tournament. That’s my tweet
It's pretty clear the prevailing winds are turning against us right now. I'm not feeling great tbh.
And yet, Mike DeCourcy says we're an #11 seed.
We dwarf the bubble in quality wins amongst a bunch of unimpressive bubble resumes. Common sense will prevail. The eye test will prevail. Computers do not rule us. Not yet
RU has had one of the most unusual seasons. You can cherry pick games like these and the resume is strong. You can cherry pick games like Bart and it’s weak. RU had a lot of good this year, and RU had a lot of bad this year. And they earned all of it. Such an uneven season.
I think this is the way it will go. The body of work improved dramatically at the end of the year. I figure the panel will overlook the early, out of conference, bad losses and take into strong consideration the top 20 wins and the impressive string of wins at the end of the year. Plus a win over #1 Purdue!!
Can’t have it both damn ways. Conference record doesn’t mean crap right? So that makes this a stupid, arbitrary cherry pick out 10 out of 31 games on our 31st ranked SOS schedule and harp on poor 6-4 performance in those games.
And oh yeah our starting PG missed 3 of those games plus the end of Lafayette.

Nothing ground breaking here everyone knows we sucked at the beginning of the year when OOC games are played. February and March should be more important than October and November.
Yep if Conference Record doesn’t matter, then OOC SOS doesn’t matter either. Our overall SOS is 31 so he can shove it
he’s not but as said above because of our very unique resume one can very easily make a very strong case for us (our play in the latter part of the season) or make a negative case for how we played when the calendar still said 2021
100%
computers and so called Metrics have been wrong all year and a terrible indicator of a separating teams. I do not need the NET to tell me Gonzaga is a really good team or that Georgetown is bad. I watch the games.
Kenpom had us going 1-8 over last 9 games . We went 6-3.
If we have the lowest NET and the NET is the measure of a good team than the NET is really bad at doing what it is supposed to do. Based on NET we should have gone 1-8 as well. We went 6-3.
As a matter of fact the only way we don’t get in is because the ncaa is pissed that we broke their measuring stick, made them look silly and they are they too stubborn to admit it.
or all the bid stealers win But I don’t see this happening

This is the same mistake kyk made earlier in the season when he said Kenpom projected us to be 7-24 or whatever. You can't just add up the individual game predictions.
My reply:
Holy cherry pick your stats, Bartman. BTW how did our performance down the stretch compare to your predictions? If
@RutgersMBB
is not in the NCAA tourney, it diminishes the winner and the "championship." No reason to do that
