And the guys who’ve made at least 100:
Hunter didn’t make 100? Fwiw I think if you hit a clutch three for the tie in the closing seconds of the national championship game, that counts as 20.
So basically 87. The clutch three he made in overtime gets him over 100.
The Louisville shot counts as 100
Well, 86, if 1 is worth 20.
Nah that’s nerd math. Hunter rounds up to the nearest 87.
So how many are we giving DT for Wake? Brogdon for Pitt (and frankly what would have been the deciding three at Louisville in 2015 before Mangok hit his first shot in a month at the buzzer)? Beekman for Duke, Woldetensae for stunning the Dean Dome?
If IMK stays 4 years (please) he could easily end up in Guy/Harris territory for volume of makes. Even this year when he’s not a primary option he’ll probably end up with 50-some.
I like this hybrid. If I have to pick one of those guys, I think he will trend much closer to Malcolm than Joe.
I mean, this one’s pretty easy. Tony Bennett is our coach. You can tell by the v sabres logo.
Don’t forget Jerome with the fake pass to nobody and the three at Duke. That’s gotta be worth a bunch.
Just heard Lunardi basically say even if we ran the table and won the ACCT we still wouldn’t jump onto the #2 line.
Cmon man. That’s stupid. I don’t care how “weak” the ACC is.
I mean we did lose to tech who sucks
Tech is a quad one loss
Yeah but they suck
I saw that too. That was BS. If UVA is at its ceiling as he says, he is completely discounting any kind of growth or dominant performance just because we are playing against ACC teams that underperformed in November and December. It makes ACC teams a good pick in the NCAAT because they are systemically being undervalued. The NCAAT is played in March and April, not Nov/Dec. This practice is even more suspect in this era of free transfers and completely revamped teams every year. Nov/Dec performance is more erratic now until teams gel and improve. To lock conferences in a closet bracketologically is going to lead to mid-seedings and the appearance of upsets. Did Lunardi have Duke and UNC in the Final 4 last year?
What’s the argument for the ACC being stronger than it looks on paper that doesn’t apply to another power conference just as well? Lots of teams across different conferences had high roster turnover and the ACC was only one win better than the B12 in the NCAAT last season (and had a miserable performance in 2021).
More out of conference play later in the season would definitely help with rankings and seedings, but since we don’t have that, the ranking systems have to go with the data that’s available.
I think Lunardi is simply acknowledging that we have at best two Quad 1 games left on our schedule, so not a lot of opportunity to burnish our resume. He’s not saying the team has hit its ceiling, but our ranking probably has. Is anyone going to be impressed if we beat Louisville, Georgia Tech and Notre Dame? We might get a slight bump by beating Duke and North Carolina, but not enough to jump the teams ahead of us.
