What is the purpose of RPI in basketball? Are they going to seed the Sweet 16 and I missed the announcement?

They should.

So I can post a Facebook status update that my Tomcats are the #2 team in the state. :sssh::lol2::lol2:

Am I the only one who sees this list as pretty much meaningless? :idunno:

 

I like seeing the list of teams and their W/L records, but outside of that we all know that this doesn't really tell us much.

In December it doesn't.

 

In February it will give us a pretty good picture.

I do see that there's probably more undefeated teams at this juncture of the season than usual (23), but just like always this changes dramatically because of all of the holiday classics and such.

 

Just like every year I'll probably track the undefeated teams, but I'll wait for the new year to arrive, and that number drop before I bother.

I’d like to see the regional winners seeded instead of random draw. Maybe that is what eventual goal is with RPI. With amount of games basketball has, the RPI will most likely be more accurate than football at end of regular season.

I dis-agree, the draw is great, hopefully they never go away from the draw for the regional tournament or the state tournament. If I had to pick one would rather see the RPI effect the regional tournament rather than the state.

I don’t like draw because can have two top teams play each other 1st round. Better matchups should take place later in tournament.

Exactly. The best two teams should play in the Championship. That's less likely to happen with the current format.

Seeding isn’t going to guarantee the best two teams meet either. Seeding creates a path for them to meet. Still gotta play the games.

They should.

 

I don’t care if they seed it or not. Makes no difference to me. I prefer the draw but I don’t really care anymore. Pros and cons for both.

 

I was just curious if I should care about the RPI or not. For now looks like it is meaningless.

Nothing ever guarantees the best teams make it. A "random" draw is just pretty juvenile if you ask me.
