Why Quad 1 wins might be incredibly important

[jhmossy]

Each of the last 15 champions have had at least 9 Quad 1 wins entering the tourney

FYI about you'r second bullet, Florida has what 9 or 10 quad 1 wins this season? If they get any play down low....

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but what is a Quad 1 win?

Not stupid. I wouldn't expect a Pitt fan to understand what a Quad 3 win is, let alone a Quad 1 win.

Quad 1 is home win vs. top 30, neutral win vs. top 50, or road win vs. top 75.

Well played, thanks for the clarification.

If we can't get Maata or Dan Hurley (which probably won't happen), I hope we look into Ron Sanchez. Love the ways UVa plays, very similar to the way we used to play in our Dixon/Big East days. Great assistant and recruiter, will definitely be getting calls soon.

If not him, I'd be okay with Earl Grant (Charleston) or the SDSU coach.

A very flawed and misleading "tool". Whenever a win over St.Bonnie or Loyola of Chicago carries more or equal weight than a win over West Virignia, something is really wrong.
