He beats some crap teams out of conference to make record look good. He loses a lot of conference games but due to being in a strong conference his rpi and strength of schedule get dragged up by conference affiliation. He then gets several quality wins because he gets 8-9 chances for a quality win at home and takes maybe 3-4. Gets 8-9 chances for "quality win" on the road and takes 1-2 of them. That's enough to skate into the tournament most years. Except it won't work here because you have to win 12 games in conference and take the 3-4 chances you get. Tubby got to take free shots at Kansas, Baylor, Oklahoma, Kansas state, Oklahoma state etc etc. if he lost it never counted against him for NCAA tournament selection. If he won it was a huge boost.

That formula doesn't work in the AAC. He doesn't win consistently enough to be successful here. 23-10 is going to get you CBI here. You have to go 26-7 or better probably

1. Tubby coached at Minnesota, TTU, and Memphis for six, three, and one year(s), respectively.

2. His overall record in the past ten years was 188-144 (56.6%).

3. His conference record in the past ten years was 73-107 (40.6%)

4. The range of final conference standings over the past ten years was tied for 5th (Memphis) and 10th (TTU in 2014-2015). His average final conference standing was 7.5.

5. Tubby won the Big 12 COY in the 2015-2016 season. His team finished 19-13 overall and 9-9 in conference for 7th place. He earned an NCAA bid where he promptly lost to Butler by double digits.

6. His 2015-2016 RPI record follows: 6-9 against RPI 1-50; 2-2 against RPI 51-100, 8-2 against RPI 101-200; and 3-0 against RPI 201+. His RPI SOS was #16.

The data supports your post statements. Tubby will have to find a way to enter and win in the NCAA Tourney without being propped up by a P-5 conference. The past season results (especially the last two games) and likely less talent next season does not indicate to me that he knows how to do it.
