That’s not a bad road slate. Road games are never easy, but those are very manageable

I work in D.C. and there’s an OM fan in the building. He walks over frequently to talk about how “we’ll be disappointed” by Kiffin and how Golding is great.

re: LSU predicted to be 11-1 using ESPN percentage analytics

Agreed. The counting of every ~56% chance as a 100% win is also flawed.

He’s using the data provided by ESPN, which calculated (based on their FPI model) out to three decimal places.
He’s simply taking that at face value and offering how it would predict a season W/L number.
Are you arguing with ESPN or him?

Not really. It’s fairly straightforward math.
I’m shocked that people are comfortable enough with these game-by-game FPI predictions to base optimistic season predictions on them, while arguing strongly against someone taking the FPI predictions at face value and calculating what they actually suggest for the season.

My dad hung Vince Lombardi’s “What it takes to be number 1” on my bedroom wall as a kid. Honestly, I read it so much (because it was forever hanging on my wall) that I can honestly say it shaped how I thought in a good way.
Admittedly, it doesn’t hurt that my dad valued the message and I valued my dad…so it was biased to stick.

There are 361 NCAA Div 1 basketball teams, with a 68-team tournament. The vast majority enter every season with a 0.0 chance at winning a championship.
re: Rather have a year with a football natty or a year with a natty in every sport but footbal

A year with a baseball, basketball, women’s basketball, track and field (indoor and outdoor), gymnastics, golf and volleyball championship
Versus
A football championship
Yeah…it would be pretty great to see us sweep everything else. We’ll win more football championships

the day I am getting “nuggets for my own life” from Lane Kiffin’s press conference (or any football coach) it’s time for me to take a step back, and reevaluate some things.
Having spent over 2 decades now in positions of increasing organizational leadership, I can tell you that there are many books by coaches that have some great insights on how to lead effectively and manage organizations.
You don’t become successful by accident—in any field—and even coaches you don’t admire overall still have things they do very well.
