Say whatever you will, in terms of expectations from analytics, fans, experts, polls, etc., we were generally a bubble team per expectations....not the #11 overall seed that made the 2nd weekend. And this data weights a lot of it based on stats and performance from prior years, which we had a very experienced team that had data....Pope did elevate this group quite a bit.
