Go Hoosiers

We are currently losing, and it would be my guess that it's not due to UMBC fans.

My scale also measures body fat %, which has steadily dropped. I also had a dexa scan before I started and one recently that showed my body fat % has dropped significantly. In addition, I’m lifting weights most days and have lost almost no strength. Of course you will lose some muscle whenever you cut but the majority has been fat. You have absolutely no clue what you’re talking about. OK I’m really done now.

I've been doing it for 6 weeks by counting calories, tracking calories burned, and weighing myself daily and have had great results. You can continue to argue with me, but as usual you don't know what you're talking about. I'm sure no one cares about this argument so I'm going to stop there.

Going into starvation mode is certainly something you need to be mindful of but it's not likely to happen at 1,700-1,800 calories.

I am literally doing this right now. 3,500 calories a day is not only possible, it's not that difficult. Your body is going to burn about 2k on it's own and you can get to 3,500 with about 15k steps throughout the day. If I do enough cardio and walking in a day I can get 4k calories burned. And if you eat the right foods, you can eat 1,700-1,800 calories while burning 3,500 and spend very little time being hungry.

That is untrue. Losing 1 lb every two days is equivalent to burning 3,500 calories and consuming 1,750 a day - an amount that is considered healthy for dieting. It requires a tremendous amount of discipline (mainly in terms of eating) but you can lose 30 pounds in 2 months.

Don't sleep on Blake Wesley either.

2 runs with 2 outs in the 9th. No give up in this team! 9-7 Louisville.

As in winning the big ten? Jesus, is it fun being depressed all the time?

Any chance we go after him?

So basically this is solely based on geography rather than for example, pitting the best 1 seed against the worst 2 seed. Does strength within seed come into play at all?

Villanova has lived on kids in the 30-60 range. I'm very confident kids ranked around 50 on average easily outperform kids ranked around 125. I think the 30-75 range is the sweet spot because you are getting really good players that likely aren't going pro after 1-2 years.

Shouldn't you be somewhere evangelizing how overrated Carsen Edwards is?

Yes it is misleading and it's just a lazy analysis. Plus as mentioned you aren't taking volume into account at all. Lumping a low volume 20% shooter into a group that is shooting 35% overall is just dumb. He is not a guy that is keeping the defense honest so what is the point of including him.
