He's still a dick. He can be right and still be a dick.

Accurate as a general statement. All I know of Lunardi though is making projections. No idea the type of person he is. He tweeted around 430 that the only thing the committee was focusing on this weekend were the last teams in/out. So you’re right, it was set Friday. Does that make you a di**?

He isn't right as much as the committee gives him bits and pieces of info beforehand and his mock brackets are just PR trial balloons. That's why he was anti UT earlier today. He was doing PR work to try to justify a 3 seed.

A lot of his projections are based on that...

He’s had awful misses before. He wasn’t doing PR, just sharing what he knew

Only if you agree with him. He had Aubie and Kensucky 20% better by his metrics. He's a dick.

He’s a reporter. And he got it right. He reported what he knew. It’s doesn’t make what the committee did right. Him repeating what they were doing doesn’t make them wrong either actually. The committee not making top line adjustments after the last two or three days is the di** move. Reporting (when done correctly) isn’t PR

I don't understand the hate towards Lunardi. His mock brackets are partially based on what the committee tells him. Now, his brackets aren't him being right as much as him being given most of the answers.

When I saw him earlier today with his lengthy explanation as to why UT was a #3 seed, I got a lot of Wolken vibes. It seemed more like pre-emptive PR instead of a logical, consistent analysis. Just my opinion.

No way Auburn, Nova and Duke have better resumes. All lower in Kenpom and only Nova won their tourney. Vols 4-1 vs top 8 seeds, I believe.
