Is it me or is Eric Musselman really imploding? The guy might be gone sooner than later.
That’s how EIU basketball is funded.
If he's imploding, then he wouldn't have been able to assemble the talent he has for this year's roster.
They don't even need all those to fund the season.
Eric Musselman has been imploding. He has ended 7 of the past 11 seasons with a worse KenPom rank than he started the season with. In the past 3 seasons as a head coach, his teams have finished KP rankings 50 places lower than they started (in fairness, he dropped 55 spots last year, from 22 to 77, and 94 spots his last year at Ark, from 14 to 108).

Glad you're tickled but it literally entirely is. So we’re going to 76 teams in the tourney for entertainment value?

Not only that, his temper in and out of the program has been making the rounds.
A guy who people thought could be a “blue blood” coach in waiting…..is not gonna happen.

I don't know the guy so it's hard to objectively/fairly judge as an online commenter. I know guys like him, Hurley, Izzo, etc. have a reputation for their tempers but it seems like at least Hurley and Izzo always defend their players and never seem to punch down. There's something that makes my skin crawl about a guy like Musselman who publicly loses his composure and punches down, both on and off the court. Just seems like bad leadership to me.
In honor of being exactly one month from our first exhibition game, I went ahead and launched my site this morning: myperfectcampaign.com
Don’t intend to market here! A single post to say “hey I made a cool college basketball thing” and that’s it.
Yes, I had to monetize to some degree (spent literally several hundred hours + various other cost). If anyone wants free unlimited access, I can do that for all my pals here; feel free to message me. But just signing up gets you free sandbox tokens every day.
Note that mobile isn’t great yet and data curation is still in process to some degree. The 03-04 season data is incomplete, outlook teams are not fully accurate just yet, I’m still adding historical data for some of the draft sandboxes but it should be good back to 2015 or so.
Full dynasty mode in the works and coming soon. Also, equivalent of this for football side? Also in the works.
If you are outside the US you may not see the site yet as the domain can take a while to fully propagate.

Congrats man, this is super clean.
Very cool
Impressive. Very clean look and navigation. What's your background that you were interested in such a big project?
Thanks! Appreciated, for sure. Has long been a pet project of mine, and at some point figured why not try to get it in front of people who share the same passion.
Well, I'm just a college basketball nerd who also happens to be software guy. A lot of the analytics sites have very poor UX, so that's something I hope to bring that's an improvement. Obviously the product has to be good too (still working through rating algorithms and weighting advanced stats, etcetera).
I have no idea where to put this - so please move this to the right spot Dan if im flooding the wrong thread, but for any card collectors, thought you might enjoy this checklist release.
Panini Noir 2025-26 recently came out, and they have college players this year and Illini are represented with Andrej Stojakovic. - 2 different cards numbered to 49 and 25 respectively. Also a Will Riley autograph numbered to 10. Happy hunting!

gotta make some money to fund the other sports
Gotta fund the Marty Simmons extension that was clearly necessary before Tom Michael bailed two weeks later.
(And yes, I'm still bitter about this)
