[QUOTE="soupy17, post: 1409730, member: 74924"] So I decided that I'm going to do this between now and this weekend for the past 10 seasons, just because I'm interested in data and stuff and I feel like it will contribute to this wonderful discussion (and it's a slow time at work at the moment). I'm not going to be looking at class rankings or anything, but rather the "average talent level" on each team according to each players rating from the 247 composite. For players not rated in the 247 composite (applies to Adonis De La Rosa and Matic Vesel for us), I will assign a rating of .75, as that's about the lowest I've ever seen assigned on 247, and having an unranked player on scholarship on your team should negatively affect your score. I am also including any scholarship player that was redshirted/suspended etc. in that seasons score for simplicity's sake, since I'm not sure I can 100% accurately get that right for every B1G team (this means Tracy Abrams appears on 6 teams. I've already assembled these "talent scores" for each of the past 10 years of Illinois Basketball. Here's how they rank by 247 talent level, [B]with that seasons finishing position by wins in conference noted next to it[/B] (these are not the rank in talent within the conference, as I have yet to do the rest of the programs) Rk Year AVG Conference Finish and Record 1. 2010-2011 .9455 Finished 4th in conference (9-9) 2. 2011-2012 .9376 Finished 9th in conference (6-12) 3. 2014-2015 .9205 Finished 7th in conference (9-9) 4. 2012-2013 .9200 Finished 7th in conference (8-10) 5. 2015-2016 .9193 Finished 12th in conference (5-13) 6. 2016-2017 .9181 Finished 9th in conference (8-10) 7. 2009-2010 .9116 Finished 5th in conference (10-8) 8. 2013-2014 .9022 Finished 8th in conference (7-11) 9. 2018-2019 .8836 Finished ?? in conference 10. 2017-2018 .8803 Finished 11th in conference (4-14) I figure posting this now should drive some conversation for the time being. I'll probably create a new thread when I have the full conference results. [/QUOTE]
