Let this be the thread for discussion of KenPom and other advanced stats for the coming season...

And let it start with this... an interview Donald, Sam, and I did this week with none other than KenPom himself! This was a ton of fun and Ken had some really great insight into what his formulas mean for all of college basketball. He's humble and funny and just really, really smart about data and sports. I am sure all of you who clicked on this thread will really enjoy it.

Oh, and he says Duke won't be as high as you might think in his preseason rankings. The Blue Devils are going to get dinged for having a first time head coach. The reality is, when you look at the data over many years, a first-time coach is going to have struggles and stumbles that a more experienced coach will not. Have a listen and let us know if you agree with what KenPom has to say.
