Evan Miya Preseason Ranking

[HuskyHawk]

I don't care what Evan says, or what anybody else projects. We know that these projections never survive the actual games. So let's just see how it plays out. Some of this will end up being spot on, and some of it won't. Some teams will be surprisingly good and others will disappoint.

His data doesn’t account for a lot of things, one being growth and development. It’s mainly working off static data, which has some validity. He won’t know who worked their butts off over the summer to get stronger and better. I’m sure Florida didn’t register high for him last year.

It doesn't know specific growth, but it accounts for expected growth. You are right though that all the computers were low on Florida.

It would be interesting to see if there is any data on growth as it comes to which year it’s often see the most, fresh->soph, soph->junior, junior->senior.

I actually found this for someone else earlier today so I have it pulled up lol.

KenPom: When and how freshmen get better, and when you have to wait until next year

One of the joys of college athletics is watching players improve over their four seasons. It’s fun to see the player who looked overwhelmed as a freshman become a team leader as a senior. Whether it’s Luke Maye, Admiral Schofield or Justin Robinson, seeing guys grow up is one of the more...

What does it do with freshmen? Is it just a guess? Because the variability of performance is very high and isn't predicted well by rankings.

More or less takes the recruit ranking and slots in the average production of that slot historically.

Will be interesting to see if Duke can be good again two years in a row on the back of freshmen. Last year outside of Duke, in what was considered a very rich frosh class, there wasn’t much impact at all as it comes to winning. The previous year even less so, as Castle was the only one and he was more a role player. This year will be an interesting test as to how much you can rely on frosh as Kansas, BYU and Duke will be relying heavily on them.
