Has a lot of followers so I went with it. Figured he may have been trolling.

I followed him a couple years ago, but don't use twitter much so never deleted him but he is a fool for the most part.

Shimbo is a troll. Don't believe a single thing he says. Went through that charade a few years ago.

Yeah, I got that vibe as soon as I saw some of his tweets...

All the debate about which coaches are the best has lead me to ponder what a good rating system might look like.  In my business I do a lot of work with numbers in order to compare sets of data.  I thought I would give creating a metric for evaluating coaches a go.  Without getting too detailed, here is what I came up with.  The scale is from 0-100. I factored in win %, SOS, and point differential, and weighted them 45%, 45%, 10%.  Knowing how important the tourney is to many people, I created a bonus scoring system (No Tourney=-2, upsets -1, SW16 +.5, Elite 8 +1, FF +2.5, Title +5) and I weighted the tourney accomplishments to be worth 200% of the regular season.  If you want more detail about the process, let me know.  I included many coaches who have been part of the conversation.  Let me know if you want me to include others.  I tested it out with several coaches and individual seasons.  I knew I was onto something when the 1976 IU season came back at 100.28. 

*I decided that an upset is when you are defeated by a seed that is at least 3 spots below you.

I also used the last 7 years of their college coaching.
