Providence Friars men's basketball coach Kim English was upset his team did not qualify for the round of 68 despite having six Quad 1 victories during the season.
The Providence Friars won at least 20 games for the third consecutive season and had the same win total as they did last year. This time, however, the Friars will not be dancing. Providence was left out of the field of 68 on Sunday, even as the team was 21-13 during the year. The Friars finished 58th in the NCAA Evaluation Tool rankings despite having six wins against Quad 1 opponents and three wins against Quad 2 teams. 'I think the analytics are bulls---.
But right now, there might be a change in college basketball. Scheduling to beat teams by 40 or 50 might be a thing to do. But when you get into this league, the analytics aren’t gonna look very good in league . Playing against some really, really good coaches. The NCAA uses NET to determine a team’s tournament resume.
It was a disappointing night, but again, it’s what you earn,' English added, via The Providence Journal. 'If you don’t take care of the games you’re supposed to take care of — Kansas State, at St. John’s, at Butler — if you don’t take care of those games, you put yourself in position to put your fate in someone else’s hands. It’s not where you want to be. It’s not where we are going to be as a program.
