I think FAU and Memphis are a given, though the Owls are basically same team as last year while Tigers are once again a rebuild with at least 10 newcomers. After that, going to be pretty much a dogfight. Everyone lost key pieces from last season. Going to be an interesting year!
I’m fairness, given what we have gone through, a top 100 finish wouldn’t be that bad.

Agreed.
Lose our two best players, in a tougher league and we go 18-11… I think everyone would be fine with that… I’m confused why they are projecting that but I guess it’s better than last.
clt says the computer knows we no longer have sanchez
that is worth 10 pts a game

In addition to Haslam’s tweet thread, good piece from Trilly Donovan further explaining Haslametrics:
You lost me at previous three years.
With the portal, that matters less than ever.
