Just something to take a look at and keep in mind in regards to this year's team - it's the #2 best team of the last 15 years in terms of efficiency per KenPom.
Also feel free to laugh out loud at the consistency of mediocrity. We've won between 17-21 games in 11 of the last 14 years and between 17-19 games in 8 of the last 14 years
We've won 18 or more games for 5 straight seasons.

To follow up - we've really only had 4 "bad" teams in the last 15 years, and 1 of them was Avery's first team which got everything they could out of their roster. 2 were the last 2 teams of the Gottfried era and 1 was the 13 win Grant team.
Every other team, or basically EVERY team since 2010 except for 1 has been average. Only 1 terrible team the last 10 years. And yet........basically every one of them between #49 and #64

It's almost impossible to have a losing record in basketball unless you are exceptionally terrible. Most teams pack their non conference schedule with at least 10 cupcakes.

Easy to forget it’s Oats’ first year and only halfway through that while installing a completely different system and culture. Saban went 7-6 his first year and lost to La Monroe. Not equating the coaches or sports, but I think Oats has earned a few years to build a program.. Just to make the dance would be a miracle this year.

You can’t spell Crimson Tide without NIT

Is there a link where I can view these rankings? Also, are they updated every game? Real curious to follow this efficiency rating. I think it is a top sign the program is trending up and Oats was the right hire.
