I would say that Hurley is MUCH more demonstrative and it makes him look like an immature child. K probably said a lot of the same things (and words) just in a little more subdued manner to at least give him the appearance of being in control.

Unfortunately, since the base numbers are from Kenpom and he does not have any way of filtering for certain dates, I can't. I would be intersted to see myself. My original thought was I wanted to weight the stats so that the last 10 games had 3 times the effect on the overall as the rest of the...
