New Season!

With 4 new teams and 1 new conference, the 2009-2010 NCAA Basketball conference is underway and I have started making predictions. At some point, I'll add conference tournaments into the forecasts like last season and will probably update them daily.

Daily Updates This Week

I'm going to be traveling much of this week and will not be able to update the site very early in the day starting on Wednesday, but will try to get the updates in when I can.

Podcast of interview

You can hear a podcast of my interview on the radio at this website:

Media Alert

I will be appearing on KVNU's radio program "Full Court Press" at 610 on the AM dial tonight at 6:00pm Mountain time zone. Those of you that aren't in Northern Utah/Southern Idaho can listen online at http://www.610kvnu.com . Fair warning: I will be focusing on Utah State's RPI/BracketBuster outlook, etc. I think they will be taking phone calls.

Today's update

Today's update will be a little later in the day than usual.

Update on Friday

FYI, Friday's numbers may be posted a little late in the day.

New Features

I have added two features in the past few days:

1. Bracket Busters RPI Projections:

For all 102 Bracket Busters teams, I've started projecting what their RPIs will be on February 1st. That is the day before the first matchups will be announced. This should give you some idea of where teams will likely stand at that point. The address is: http://www.rpiforecast.com/bb.html (bb = bracket busters)

2. Protrade

For all of the NCAA basketball teams on Protrade.com, I have started projecting their end of season fantasy earnings. This involves doing something similar to what I do in the conference tournament simulations, but I include NCAA tournament and NIT games. There is an explanation of the methodology at the website which is here: http://www.rpiforecast.com/protrade.html

Each of these two features will be updated at least weekly, and probably more frequently than that.
