Where the numbers get an argument

Vols analysis

The rest of the site reports what happened. This is where it argues about what that means — with every figure computed from box scores as the page loads rather than typed in, so a piece written in August still matches the data in November.

The Game He Gets Back
Arion Carter's suspension went from two games to one. The number that changed is not the interesting part — which game it hands back is, and it happens to be the only one in Tennessee's first month the model cannot call.

House rules

Figures are computed, not written down. Every number in a piece here is derived at page load from the same feeds that power the rest of the site, so it can be checked against ESPN's own box scores and cannot quietly go stale.

Every piece states what it does not know. Small samples are labeled as small samples, and where a popular statistic does not support a conclusion, that is the finding rather than something to work around.

Nothing is invented about a player. No scouting grades, no projected roles, no reporting this site has not done — college players are named here only alongside numbers they actually produced.
