He didn't love Tubby much last year, either...

Last year's prediction wasn't that bad. He whiffed on SMU but they had a lot of injuries. Houston played better than expected mostly due to Rob Gray. Memphis and Tulsa both ended up better than he predicted.

A 9th place prediction last year seemed about right considering we had replaced most of the team with JUCO's. That makes the prediction this year a little crazier since we kept most of the best players from last year and added a top recruiting class.

The players returning managed 2 sub #88 RPI wins. The newcomers will have to carry the load.

Memphis was 4-10 vs. the RPI 100

Only Cinci, WSU and Houston were better...

So I think you are overstating the RPI numbers a bit especially picking an arbitrary number to make it look as bad as possible.
