[QUOTE="LVH, post: 2812627, member: 71239"] KenPom has Texas Tech's adjusted tempo at 181 which puts them at the middle of D1. I think they need to go back to being in the 300s. Too many coaches feel that playing slow scares away recruits, but unless you have absolute top level offensive talent and athleticism, teams have a better chance playing at slower paces. Virginia won a title last year with the slowest pace in the country. I remember DePaul's coaches on Twitter a few years ago bragging that they had the fastest pace in the country. Then they go 0-18 in the Big East. It reminds me of football how everyone thinks the solution to offense is to play at a fast pace. Anyone remember our 1998 basketball team? Fastest paced team in the country. Worked great against SWAC teams and most of the WAC, but we lost almost every time we played a team that could match up with us athletically. [/QUOTE]
