Greg Gard. Silent Assassin.

Villanova Basketball is like a Fortune 500 Company. It runs itself.

Those are my two favorite Rothsteinisms. Followed closely by:

Mick Cronin. More consistent than A Few Good Men on a rainy Sunday.

yes, it kinda sucks ass that there are no longer any signature wins in the Big 12. @hilton would probably be tops and we've done that already.

Nomination for this weeks DUD, Mr. Poll Attacks himself, CBS's Gary Parrish. He isn't a DUD because he doesn't have Kansas State unranked, he's a dud because he ranked K-State 22nd last Sunday, and they stayed there every single day of his daily poll each day since then. Haven't went up haven't went down, just stuck in purgatory at 22.

This is a much bigger fish than small time DUD Josh Vitale.

MIR, Studs and Duds is based on DLew's proprietary and impartial algorithm, so nominations really don't matter much. It's really about what the formula spits out.

Also, DLew doesn't give a DAMN about power rankings or non AP polls!
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Dlew winces when people swear, especially in references to his patented sports rankings methodology and output. It's a free country but just something to consider.

I like to read "Greg Gard. Silent Assassin." as if Greg Gard is just ripping heinous farts at parties and has just a diabolical look on his face while admiring his work.

Quote
One of the interesting things about voting in the AP Top 25 Poll is that there aren't really any set rules.

If you feel a team doesn't deserve to drop because it lost a game — like Virginia to Duke — you don't have to drop it. If you feel a team deserves to make a jump, you're allowed to move it up as high as you see fit, even if that means a team that didn't lose falling down.

The latter happened in my individual ballot last week. Long story short, I wanted to move teams into the poll, which meant two had to come out. One of those happened to be Kansas State

I didn't think much of it at the time. The Wildcats were 16-5 overall, No. 30 in NET and No. 39 in KenPom. I very nearly dropped them off my ballot the week prior after they lost to Texas A&M — one of the worst teams in the SEC — but ultimately kept them in at No. 24. They won their lone game two weeks ago, but it was against a bad Oklahoma State team. They had a good resume, but not a great one, so I didn't have them ranked last week. Thirty-six other voters didn't, either.

Little did I know the wrath that would descend upon my Twitter mentions. Kansas State fans were more angry at me than I think Auburn fans ever have been in my more than two-and-a-half years here. They labeled me a "dud" and told me to do things that would not be appropriate to repeat in this space. I feared I would never be allowed to visit the Little Apple, even though I had no plans to go.

I think we may be back on speaking terms now, though. The Wildcats had a very good week. They upset then-No. 13 Kansas at home on Wednesday, then knocked off a good Baylor team on the road on Saturday. They have now won eight straight Big 12 games and are up to No. 28 in NET and No. 30 in KenPom.

Couple that with a few teams near the bottom of my ballot suffering one or two losses, and I have Kansas State up to No. 17 in the AP poll — one spot ahead of rival Kansas.
