@BudElliott3 A good OC should struggle to pick up a 3x5 index card with the team's plays on it.
A good DC should squat 600lbs 5x a week,have a crippling dependency on White Monster, and a total inability to sleep without his CPAP
@TomFornelli Here's an idea...Make Qatar fly the 12 highest ranked teams in the 247 recruiting rankings to the Middle East in July & then have a playoff there. That way we can crown a "National Champion" in Jeddah. Then we play the actual season out in America like normal, well-adjusted folks
@RoushKSR From my personal power ratings for Bateman (negative is good on D) Year before he got to Army they were a +8 on D. His Ds from 14-18 were a +4, +2.5, -3, -2.5, & -12. At UNC he took over a +6.5 and took them to a -2 before COVID & politics got in the way. He is a rock solid DC
Brian Hartline would have been the worst hire in Kentucky history. Would have had a horrible offense, team, staff, and someone would have been killed by an ATV
Kentucky fans might think "Final Four Potential" is fairly generous here, but the preseason talent of this roster is still very important in these predictive analytics.
Though Kentucky has been really poor, teams that good typically rebound as the season progresses.
