What is College Basketball Coaching Savant?
College Basketball Coaching Savant is a free profiler of men's Division I head coaches from Western Conference Elitists: records and the coaching tree as far back as the sources go, and everything a coach decides on the floor from the season its data begins.
Its headline is wins above the roster: what the players he was handed were worth last season, read before he coached them, against what his teams did. It also follows whether players improve under him, how he builds a roster through high school and the portal, when each man plays and how often he goes off script, whether his timeouts stop runs, how his teams do in March against their seed, and whether he won with money or without it.
Player numbers come from College Basketball Savant. Coaching histories and staffs are read from Wikipedia, spending from the Department of Education. For the NBA, see Basketball Coaching Savant.
