biggest growth area of litigation in the future and I didn't even know what it was and thought it was farcical, but now I think she is Nostradamus.

i went "headline only" on this, but i'd assume the allegation is that kenpom is used in some way by the selection committee... and so if there is bias in the formula, it prejudices them by reducing their chances of a high seed/tourney invitation.

as to the latter question, i can't imagine there is an advantage to kenpom... nor can i imagine that they are doing it. i assume what happens is they have a value for coaches based upon a statistical model... and cooley found that he, and some of his black colleagues, werent highly regarded by that metric. he presumes it to be evidence of bias.. whereas im just presuming the reality is he isn't a top coach..

Yeah, I mean... why not sue the NCAA for using this OBVIOUSLY racist formula??

Here, let me show you MY newest rankings for making the NCAA tournament; it's entirely based on how hot the coach's wife is for each team...

Does the NCAA use it? No. So this guy's solution is to track down the racism inherent in any of these formulas, then... ban the formula and the writer/statistician/whatever you call KenPom??

My GAWD, we simply don't have enough lawyers.

Stupidhead

The part Ed Cooley doesn't understand is that the white guys are the ones being unfairly biased against. White players, by and large, are viewed as not as athletic as their black counterparts, even when their stats and measurables prove otherwise.

probably just another real jerk in life
