Every financial statistic in relation to out program is mind numbing! There is no program that spends more to get less.

Big news - Jacksonville State won but it wasn’t enough to keep them ahead of us. We are still #128 but they fell to #129. Temple also won and jumped ahead of us all the way to #126. Exciting stuff.

If we beat KenPom #123 Butler tomorrow night at CapOne, I think we have a great shot of jumping Utah Valley and Hofstra to get to #125 or so.

Not sure what happened but we slipped to #129 but, good news, Jacksonville St fell, too, so we are still ahead of them. A win tonight probably jumps us up to #127 ahead of Utah Valley and Temple.

I know this is somewhat sarcastic/in jest, but in reality, we are predicted by KenPom's model as 59% to win, with a projected score of 71-69. So, basically, unless the score is super close, we will go up in the rankings with a win, or down in rankings with a loss. How much depends on the margin. If the game ends up close to a tie/close margin, no significant movement in either direction is likely.

#191 on Bart Torvik just inching past the previous all time low set earlier this year. Georgia is the only major conference team below us but very close at #193.

Oh my, down to #142. Just behind Weber St and just ahead of Princeton. And defense down to 176. Both are all time lows for Georgetown.

#191 on Bart Torvik just inching past the previous all time low set earlier this year. We are also now listed as an underdog in every game left with a projected 3-17 record.

We just lost 2 of our 4-5 most winnable games, at home, after our coach rigged the COVID rules to give us as much advantage as possible. That said I think we get 4-5 wins in the Big East at least. With Freeman-Liberty hurt, I think we beat DePaul twice.

Our defense on KenPom is now down to 200. Meaning there are 199 programs - many of which aren’t high majors - who have better defense than ours.

Missouri just beat Ole Miss at Ole Miss by 25 last night so they may have moved up past them too.

Didn’t really move with this loss - now at #153. With the schedule improving, not many of the losses that are coming will move the ranking much. We’re finding our floor here but I’m confident these coaches can find a way to get us a little bit lower.
Went up 9 spots in Bart Torvik. Yes, we are at the place now where losing a game like this is a positive.

Unfortunately, it was the worst defensive game of the year. Team is ranked #233 on defense now.
