Thread: Let's Build a Final Four team through The Portal

  1. #1

    UL Basketball Let's Build a Final Four team through The Portal

    Is it even possible 🤔?

    I believe somewhere some analytical formula is being developed and used to do just that.

    Can a school like us pull this off?

    When you look at the number of players in the portal is there a way to mathmatically hit on just the right individuals to catch lightning in a bottle?

    I think what he's saying is that there are so many kids in the portal that if you are just better at picking the diamonds in the rough, you can win big without having to just overpay for the obvious talent. Clearly the trick there is the "being better at picking" part.

    Ironically "Money Ball" is about finding role players without your needing "the money."

    1) This admin is not seriously committed to basketball
    2) It would take millions of private dollars
    3) Making a deep run requires a decent seed - not sure our league is there yet
    4) The fall out from the pump and dump would be insane
    5) BR would investigate us to high heaven
