And, to think, Charli Creme bumped Baylor up to a #1 seed in his bracket because he was so impressed with Baylor's win over Oklahoma in the Big 12 semi-finals.
Charlie Creme is _______________. And his read on Oklahoma was just as bad. I didn't think either of these teams deserved the seeding they received.
I like Creme a lot, and really appreciate his contributions, but it's very evident he hasn't watched, played, or coached basketball for a living. He actually has a full-time job that's not basketball related for 10 months a year, and I think it hurts him a little bit in the inability to watch teams regularly throughout the season and see what's going on on the court and with various matchups, player development, injuries, etc. instead of primarily just going based on the RPI/NET team sheets.
IMHO, his blinders always emerge most when he has to adjust on the fly based on how teams are playing very recently, rather than relying on a body of work, SOS, and W/L.
