I'm glad they actually changed the camera from looking at the hosts talking about nothing on to the real entertainment

We need to stop referring to BC as a P4.

KenPom might be broken 😂. Yale is 83 this should go down as a Q2 game

Margin of Victory as a metric is something Groce is playing into. He's leaving starters in later than usual and allowing the bench guys to go full bore until the very final possession. He knows he has a Cinderella caliber team that will need every argument possible to get the highest seed possible.

stronger bench, maybe?  Halligan could start at any directional school, right?

 

is there a magic # to stop running up the score?  25? 30?

It's not like Halligan is filling the stat sheet. The guys in at the end are just playing hard until what is truly the final possession. 

 

None of it is running up the score if the other team is playing hard, too. MMK pulled the ball back tonight and we had a "shot clock violation" on the final possession. I'm sure among the coaching fraternity it is being talked about that improving a team's metrics is the name of the game when it comes to March arguments. Hard to fault anyone with that in mind.
