Quote from: notamensa on February 07, 2007, 01:44:05 PMim not sure that hes an outstanding ft shooter. hes only 79% for the year, and if you take out his ft shooting performances against cnu (11/14, 12/13) hes only 75%.

maybe outstanding was too strong...but he does rank 2nd in the conference at 82.1% overall and 8th at 79.1% in conference games...so maybe i should have said he's one of the best in the conference rather than outstanding

I said if you are going to hit my karma let me know why? based on my power ranking formula CNU is running at about 44% on defense. 50% is about average. That means 50% on defense and 50% on offense should make you a .500 team. CNU has an offense at 54%. Narch defense wins championships. I think there are quite a few teams out there (maybe CNU) all they are out to do is just out score you. With the 3pt shot a coach can bring in a bunch of 3pt shooters and just out shoot any team and win (thats pretty much the grinnell approach, where defense is a plus) Loyola-Marymount and the run they had as well

nota-

again I don't think CNU will win the conference becuase they don't have the defense. The offense they have is a plus.

Relax Mensa. You're safe. I was just ribbing you a little. I got the impression you would take it well based on the many posts I've read.
And as for this CNU85 guy... I'm not sure we've ever met to be honest.
I hope to meet you both... maybe I'll get back to Virginia before the season ends and we can see a game. The lord knows I spent enough time out on the court playing against the Captains in my time, it would be nice to watch the action from up on high once!

There once was a lull in the action.
All posters were bored to distraction!
To cheer up their readers
They ogled cheerleaders
So keenly their eyes were in traction!

wow, not much hoops going on here...

There is an article on D3hoops about the 2007 regional rankings. In the South region, AU comes in at #7. Virginia Weslyan and Guilford are also in the group. I would have thought Greensboro might have shown up

With half the conference currently in first place, I think it's hard to argue that one of us even belongs in the south region rankings... Averett is probably riding their #11 national ranking from earlier in the year now that they seem to be healthy again. At this point it's all up for grabs...

GC has 15 Wins, AU 14 and CNU 13. I must be biased towards AU too. CNU has the best record in the conference and they are listed 3rd.
i never said you were biased...in fact, i called your formula unbiased, as you have stated many times previously...read the post

i ran the 3 teams at the top of the conference through a sosi type formula (in fact, it is the sosi formula, except i applied it to ALL d3 teams, not just regional competition) - here is how this formula ranked these teams

averett: 9.32, 13-6 vs. d3 competition, 7-4 vs. teams above .500, 1-0 vs. teams under .333
gc: 9.17, 13-5 vs. d3 competition, 4-4 vs. teams above .500, 4-0 vs. teams under .333
cnu: 8.11, 11-7 vs. d3 competition, 3-4 vs. teams above .500, 1-1 vs. teams under .333

Narch, I'd be curious if you ran this for Averett twice: once in games where Averett is at full strength and once while they were in injury mode...
