I think Manning's biggest accomplishment this year was keeping Robinson out of jail.

KU fans often confuse improvement with playing time.



Yes, because the two are mutually exclusive.  God, you guys are dumb.  I hope for the sake of K-State's academic integrity that most of you didn't actually go to school there.

Do you have an extra 23rd chromosome? Honestly, for the sake of KU's academic integrity, I hope you didn't actually go there. His numbers per game have gone up tremendously (good job, takes HBBIQ to spot that) but per 40 minutes, his points AND rebounds have gone down. I credit Danny Manning. A true miracle worker.

Why do you do this to yourself beems

Jeff Withey is a key reason KU will likely win another league title. Good for Self/Manning to finally get him to play like a Top 30 prospect.

When I visited Baylor for my preseason postcard last fall, Perry Jones told me that he only participated in one summer camp that involved top collegians. Not only did he skip the main events that were sponsored by Nike, Jones told me he didn't even know about them. (Probably just a coincidence that Baylor is an adidas school.) I have to believe that if Jones spent his summer going up against high-level competition instead of working out by himself in Waco that he would be a much better and tougher player.

Wow, makes you really count your blessings for having an elite apparel contract with Nike.

There are certainly less fortunate out there like  Baylor and KU.

I'm done with Seth Davis. Done. He absolutely has no idea what he's talking about in terms of efficiency. I mean, I don't even...

It doesn't account for efficiency.

If you're a true, hardcore college basketball fan, you know all about efficiency rankings, also known as tempo-free stats. They sprang from the brilliant mind of Ken Pomeroy. His site, KenPom.com, is a bountiful source of useful information. I check it almost every day, and I use Ken's nuggets frequently in my columns and television analysis.

However, these numbers have no place in the bracketing process. None. They tell us a great deal about why a team wins, but that is far less important than knowing whether it wins. Believe it or not, sometimes the less efficient team still ends up with more points.

@kenpomeroy Its hard for me to see that he was saying otherwise. And most of his points defending the RPI are flawed at best.
