Graham Couch: Iowa Basketball is a mid-major roster

[rholtgraves]

BPI and KenPom have had Iowa above ISU almost all season. At this point it's a complete joke, I think we have 5 wins now better than their best win and our record is better against a stronger SOS.

They are both dramatically worse resume ranking tools than RPI is by the end of a season. It's not even close.

Not meant to measure resumes.

I hate Nebraska, just think it's funny some fans think they'll get left out at 14-4.

Well ISU isnt making the tourney this year dude, stay out of it.

 

[RedDog]

Suspected? Haven't even said anything remotely positive about them since Jok left but keep thinking that.

They will next year for sure, Iowa will be without Cook and still giving up 90 points a game.

Honestly you saying Iowa didn't make the tourney when they lost they play in game makes me wonder if you really aren't an Iowa fan

 

[YeahBuddy]

They will next year for sure

This wouldnt make me feel good if I were an ISU fan.

Lmao, I poke my head in threads like this once a year on average, give an opinion on something, next thing you know I've triggered a nuclear meltdown from everyone.

I'll keep an eye on this thread come selection Sunday. I'm out.

If history has talk us anything, Jeremy says a lot of stupid stuff, says he's done arguing, and then comes back to say more stupid stuff.

Another ISU coach and another Super Bowl atmosphere. Wash, rinse, repeat.

“There’s nothing bigger than bringing Iowa to town,” said Dresser.

You don't think ISU will be better than Iowa next year?

I put my own bracket together every year since the 80s just for fun and I'm as accurate as these so called bracketologists. All i do is look at schedules and conference standings.

please post your bracket this year, 6 hours before Selection Sunday. Thanks.


No help though, other than schedules and conference standings to go off of.

In terms of wrestling, he's probably not wrong. He's also an Iowa alum.

Your choice of words with "Super Bowl" though.

Lol, Iowa fans consider that a tourney appearance, I consider it a complete joke, so that makes me an Iowa fan? Ok man.

You just don't like me because I was talking up Jok and was frustrated last year when we were 13-8 and underachieving big time.

 

[rholtgraves]

picking what teams get in really isn't difficult. It is picking the seeding of each team that is.

I don’t like you because you say “I’m out” multiple times then proceed to not be out. Poser.

It makes me feel good, everyone knows they are extremely talented and will be good next year. Iowa on the other hand......Yikes!

It'a rasslin so it's true.

Not meant to measure resumes.

But used that way by fans and writers 99.9% of the time.

There's a huge push to use BPI and Kenpom in selection process if you didn't know.

I thought the same until this thread.

Lmao, are you the guy stalking my social media, only to find out I'm not an Iowa fan and had family ties to K-State? Which verified what I had been saying all along.

They should be used as part of the process when looking at teams and seeding and what teams on the bubble get it. For instance, let's say you have some teams that are close resume wise but you are trying to figure out which one is better. Go look at the metrics. RPI has some big flaws in terms of its rankings.
