This year:
Wins/losses against KENPOM Top 49
0-12
(We won against #50-Va Tech)
Wins/losses against Kenpom 50-100
5-3
Win/losses against Kenpom 101+
11-0

We didnt win ONE game in 12 tries against elite competition!!!!

We didnt lose ONE game against bad competition

We have everyone back and we need to go .500 in the elite category and win the rest
But I dont know how we just automatically turn the 0fer around with our coaching staff.....Id LOVE to see us hire an experienced bench coach to fill the Stansbury void

---

I don't know...could it be the six new players coming on-line replacing six dead spots on last year's roster? And four of those directly address the one glaring weakness on the team. I think we know where you stand on the case of Billy Kennedy. You've made a good case, counselor. Can we litigate the hundred of other topics related to A&M and SEC basketball? What are your thoughts on the ball skills of the Marquette transfer?

---

There are maybe 25 people who post with any regularity on this board. Even accepting your post as hyperbole, there there aren't a hundred...or even 20 other topics related to A&M and SEC basketball that would get more than 3 replies before the thread died.

I guess it would be more interesting to work through whatever topics that come up versus hearing 100 different ways to say Kennedy sucks. It's not that I disagree. It just gets old when every discussion turns into a comedic platform for how many creative ways posters can express the incompetence of Kennedy.

And there are numerous topics we could discuss. Everybody rank the best PG's/SG/W/posts in the SEC. Discuss the overall strength/weakness of the SEC next year, will Auburn and MSU take a step forward next year, rank and compare 2017 attendance by SEC team. Is Robert Williams greatest A&M basketball talent over all time? How does he compare to Rudy Woods? Rank your all-time greatest posts at A&M. Rank greatest guards at A&M. Rank the most talented A&M teams of all-time.

So yes, there are numerous topics we can discuss that are not Kennedy related.

And given the intensity of your arguing, it's strange to hear you turn around and say you don't disagree with whoever you're arguing with.

---

Strange? You know where I stand. Having an academic discussion on the pros and cons of Billy Kennedy is just fine. What is very uninteresting is how frustrated posters personally attack Kennedy and use him as a punch line at every opportunity. But what usually gets my attention is the ranting poster that pops up on every discussion thread and derails what could've been a good, measured interaction on some topic not related to a Kennedy referendum.

Even if you think Kennedy is a bad coach, doesn't it get old to see "Kennedy sucks" in every discussion thread?

Well, why don't you start those topics instead of injecting yourself into ongoing threads to say the thread you joined annoys you?

---

The last thread I started wanting to discuss the NBA salary calculator (not slotting) both you and m_hayden used it to take shots at me. It was a legitimate topic I thought was interesting and y'all appeared to have more interest in getting into a personal back-and-forth w/me...ironic given your recent comments in this thread.

We've worked ourselves into an environment where we all have our guard up and I'll take my fair share of the blame as y'all should too. I'd like to bring the temperature down and all agree to disagree on certain things and then move on and get back to having some interesting discussions without this ongoing tone of "gotcha" on every thread. Can we do that going forward?

If you thought a thread titled "has anyone actually seen the salary chart" was going to play well, you're lost.

I gave you a serious answer and multiple serious posts in at thread to which you didn't then and just now didn't acknowledge. If my joke is all you saw and can remember, that is revisionist and has to do with your motivations for posting here and is not my fault. For your memory, my posts are below.

And you'll have to answer your last question for yourself.

Seems it has been linked/posted several times here. Adjustments are being made to it under the new CBA so the 2016 numbers aren't fully accurate for the picture moving forward but will give a generally good idea.

Definitely will make more money moving up the draft board. But you've got some other financial considerations such as trying to get to free agency (which is where money is really made), etc.

Yes, present value analysis will lower the value of future payments. Time value of money in the most general terms supports taking less money now over waiting for a larger payment later because you will then have an extra period(s) for the money to grow in value.

But that cuts both ways. Yes, it lowers the value of a future free agent contract. But it also lowers the value of waiting a year to sign a rookie contract.

I find it very telling that a side you've argued against no less than half a dozen times on here, you're just now taking the time to google the specifics on.

Maybe he'll do a "has anyone actually seen NCAA attendance numbers" next.
