Some of the networks could help by setting up one-off neutral-site money games involving WSU, also. We know the Chickenhawks will run in fear from such opportunities -- hence the name -- but others might not.

Arizona is definitely a head scratcher. He has them at #18 right now and they go to #2 by adding a 7 foot freshman? Weird.

I looked for the Creighton Bluejats and didn't find them. Will they make the Top 25?

We all know what Top 10 KenPom gets us, Jack Squat!

Kenpom sells the whole list to coaches for scheduling purposes. I wonder if WSU uses this service? If not, they should to avoid the OOC black hole we got this season.

Love this shot at the committee.

"Want to game the basketball committee’s way of thinking? Ditch league play and set up a Gonzaga/Wichita State game every weekend during conference season."

The only problem with that is that the schedule is mostly set well in advance of these rankings. There may be a few games to fill in where they could be of help but at this point it can be a case of simply finding a team with an open date.

I wonder what type of algorithm he sets up for a computer ranking prior to the season. Obviously, he has returning players efficiency rankings, and team efficiency rankings based on these players. But how does he rank recruits efficiency?

Accounts for 5 star guys, transfers, and no one else. It'd be virtually impossible to project for anyone beyond that.

Dumb question, but is March Madness 360 tv or radio? A quick Google search didn't provide much information.

Gonna be on CBS Sports Network. March Madness 360 is the name of the program, I believe.

I could absolutely see him do TV work after he retires from coaching.
