Minor correction regarding front page article

[UrinalCake]

The article on the front page titled "Duke's Strength Revealed" states that Duke has more top-50 RPI wins than anyone else in the country. This is not correct. In the CBS article referenced, Gary Parrish states that no other teams have more top-50 wins than Duke. However, two teams have the same number (10) - Villanova and Butler. A minor quibble but still relevant.

We have the potential to pick up 1-4 more top-50 wins before the season ends, so we could potentially enter Selection Sunday with the outright "most top-50 RPI wins" title.

Parrish has a podcast through CBS in which he goes into this in more detail in the latest episode. He's been a pretty big supporter of Duke throughout the season, never giving up on us even while we were down because he recognized the injuries, the difficult schedule, and the level of talent that we still have. This stat is further evidence that despite the perception that our season has been a disaster, our resume is actually still pretty good.

Just a minor correction to your minor correction.

At the time Parrish originally tweeted, Butler and Villanova did also have 10 top 50 wins.

But at the moment, that's no longer true -- Butler lost a top 50 win as Providence has dropped to No. 54.

So Butler currently has nine top 50 wins ... Duke and Nova have 10 each.
