Official laugh at Jerry palm thread

[armenius]

Palm is a moron. CBS really does need to consider firing him at this point.

I will gladly take his place. My bracket finished 38th place on the matrix this year. Who wants to give me a recommendation haha....

Looks like of the teams that made it in, most teams were near unanimous selections (200/211 brackets or more, 95%). Only three schools in the field had a lower level of confidence: Wyoming (173/211, 82%), Rutgers (84/211, 40%), and Notre Dame (75/211, 36%).

Of the teams that were left out, only Texas A&M appeared on more than 20% of brackets (200/211, 95%), with the next closest being SMU and Xavier (41/211, 19%).

Because of Palm’s bracket, CBS now questioning how RU in and A&M out.

We are seeded higher than Notre Dame and Indiana in the 1-68 overall seeding so why not pick on one of them??

Well Palm had them right in his field. We were the only team he missed on. In favor of A&M.

 

[Captain Hogleg]

Palm is a douche. Now he needs to script his version of a mea culpa

 

[colonel_rutgers]

Jerry Palm finished 192 out of 210 bracketologists on the bracket matrix... Maybe CBS should question why he's still employed instead.

I rest my case

 

[RU#1fan]

Mike DeCourcy and Brad Wachtel crushed it. Palm should not be taken seriously.

Face plam

As long as Rutgers is the one he missed, I’m happy

he definitely has something against RU. Did he apply and get rejected?

they took a look at his hair-do and rejected him.

Texas A+M was the 4th team out. They didn't not get in due to Rutgers.

I know - I’m assuming cbs focused on this only because Palm had us out. Why else?

 

[Yeah Baby]

And then he’s on CBS Soorts Network citing that we have the Highest NET ever and talking about going back to 1994 as if the NET and RPI are the same thing which they most definitely are not. It’s been around for like 4 years. Covering his *** by making it sound like we were the biggest exception in 28 years so how could he be faulted by missing out on us. Who is he fooling with that nonsense?

 

[bitnez]

Makes a pretty good case for. a&m,

would like to see them included but not at our expense

Well CBS conveniently ignored that they went 1-9 in late January-February. That’s what cost them.

 

[biazza38]

This makes me so happy.
He refused to put us in back in 2020 when our resume was solid. And he hated us again this year. I get that everyone uses a different “model,” but man this is sweet

 

[RU MAN]

Hahahahaha

What a maroon. Hey Jerry, the clown car is waiting for you, you chump.

I saw that segment too. Did they retroactively create NET rankings going back decades? Wtf was he talking about?

Well I’m sure we broke the RPI record too - we ended at 91 - lol.

What’s worth noting though (using RPI’s data since it’s transparent) is that the ranking system makes the score disparity seem infinitely larger than it is and the committee must know that.

Our RPI raw score was 0.5457 (that’s 91). Oklahoma’s was 0.5585 (that’s 68). Think about how that formula works - a difference of 0.0128 isn’t a lot. Rider clogged in at RPI 228. If we played that game maybe we would’ve been in the 60s? I was tracking and our RPI had been in the 70s and then a bunch of teams jumped us with wins in their tournies. Doesn’t take that much to move a bunch of slots. One or 2 games - sometimes meaningless ones. So stupid.
