The goal isn’t to win the sec.

Thats one of the goals. Yes.

KenPom picked us to lose 13 games. I’d say this is at worst a 10-loss team, unless Williams had a season ending injury tonight (perish the thought).

Kenpom also said this.....

"Like you, I’m not comfortable with Villanova at 20th or Kentucky at 43rd. Dayton at 27 seems high. But given that the ratings work well for the vast majority of teams, I don’t want to completely dismiss the oddballs, either"

I think even tho the system has us 43rd, he believes we'll be better than that.

Thats one of the goals. Yes.

Then whoever I was replying to should have used a loftier metric to make his point

But no complaining from me. Just stating the obvious. We don’t have SEC talent or athleticism. Slow footed. I don’t worry about the offense, although it could struggle against top tier competition as well, but the defense is where we are gonna struggle. And rebounding. But I’ll take a year or 2 of pope getting his players in place over another year of Cows 1 and done early round exits.

You came to that conclusion based on what, 2 exhibition games? Cmon man.
