Re: A look at coaches and kenpom

I'm not sure I see these showing Todd is much better than Tod. I think the only reason you are thinking that is because Tod hasn't left Toledo for them to drop off. His improvement is just as dramatic as the others and his consistent KenPom ranking is well above Todd's. The MAC is generally a worse...

Re: Sprinkle press conference at UW

Re: A look at coaches and kenpom

That makes me really not want to hire an Assistant. South Dakota under Eric Peterson tanked. It makes me like Todd a little more. It took a little time to build up, but he kept it above everything except one year under Bill Evans. It also makes Tod Kowalczyk look above average, but not overly impres...
