Bart Torvik, creator of barttorvik.com, joins for episode #17. We got geeky about using analytics to evaluate the impact of specific players (like Duke without Tre Jones) and to rank teams. We also discussed what Bart has learned in his attempt to reverse-engineer the NET rankings so far this season and ended the episode with some fun examples of statistical oddities.
