Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

Here are 5 resumes of bubble teams. Without considering who these teams are, rank them 1-5.

I'll get more to my point once we have a few rankings in or, more likely, when someone outs who the team are right away, because naturally... (you're not smart for guessing who they are, it isn't difficult nor is it meant to be).

*EDIT: Also, please note if you consider any resume to be significantly better or worse than the rest of the group*
*EDIT 2: Added Kenpom ratings for Stever*

In order I'd take C-A-D-E-B

you left out a HUGE part to the puzzle....

Ken Pom ratings....
A 42
B 22
C 59
D 29
E 55

I'd want to see more info. Record vs RPI Top 25, Top 50, top 100. Where were those games held?

With the info provided I like:
C
A
D
E
B

Flip a coin. All really close. Need more info.

That's fine, and really part of my point- that there isn't a lot to differentiate between bubble teams right now. I obviously could have gone into a lot more detail, but I wanted to make it a fairly quick exercise and didn't want to completely give away any teams (though I think at least 1 of them is pretty obvious anyway.

I don't think kenpom should be used for tourney selection, but the committee considers it somewhat, so I'll add it.

So, Gumby and JohnW,

You were both in agreement, but now you both see that that your #1 resume of the bunch has the lowest KenPom rating and your #5 has the highest.

Would you like to change your responses?

Best wins far and away and best schedule.

No other bias' in play.
