Yep. He posts them anytime you post the reality of JJ.
I think he might actually be JJ.

I can't imagine there's another poster here or LSU fan in general that cares this much about this topic.
At least not enough to type that wall of text.
Numerous fricking times.
Boarder line obsession.

Denoting it as unreliable and subjective does not amount to refutation, without specific reason as to method and content.

and while he wants to bombard everyone with stats gerrymandered to support his own opinions, he also gives jefferson credit for non-quantifiable things like his performance in a drive where he handed the ball off to running backs. he "ran the read option to near perfection" is code for "while his actual numbers look like and were absolute dog shite, other players on the team played well, so we'll give Jefferson credit because why not."
furthermore, he's said Lee's 2009 season was worse than his 2008 season. Jarrett Lee threw 40 passes the entire 2009 season and 269 in 2008. Even a novice understanding of statistics would say that there wasn't enough statistical data for Lee in 2009 to really show anything. He threw more than 3 passes twice the entire season. He does the same for Jefferson. He picks the three games Jefferson started and use those as his basis for an entire statistical comparison. He started 5 total games, but he removes his two worst and makes up excuses as to why it's not fair to include them. He basically uses "facts" but twists and shapes them to be intentionally misleading solely for the sake of confirmation bias.

The arbitration took a lot of hours to prepare and defend. I had a huge billable month in July. One of the biggest I've had in many years. I can take some time to rest and relax for the rest of July.
I have always enjoyed teaching. This thread is an opportunity for me enlighten some minds and spread the truth. It's a teachable moment, and I don't plan to waste it.
BCS Statmaster and CptBengal probably think they are getting to me or upsetting me with their inane posts. To the contrary, every post they type gives me an opportunity to create more teachable moments; their posts merely bump the thread and allow me greater opportunity to teach and enlighten minds. I welcome their posts, inane or not.

I don't remove data points. I've repeatedly discussed both the SECCG and the BCSCG.
I compare apples to apples. That's how one is supposed to compare things.

if you want to compare apples to apples, jarrett lee and jordan jefferson have exactly one common opponent of which they started against (alabama). they both played like shite in said starts. just take their entire body of work, like a normal person, for the entire season of 2011 and stfu.

Posters have REPEATEDLY explained to you why the ESPN QBR is flawed.
Moreover, that explanation has REPEATEDLY explained that one of the primary problems with the ESPN QBR is that no one outside of ESPN knows the method or content of it.

quote:No. Jefferson did not just "hand the ball off to running backs" in the second half of the SECCG. He threw a pass for a TD, and he was the QB for the other three TDs. In ALL FIVE of LSU's possessions in the second half of the SECCG, Jefferson either ran for, threw for, or executed an option or zone read for a first down. ALL FIVE. And again, LSU rushed better when Jefferson was QB, and the SECCG was the fourth highest YPC in 2011. (The only games with higher YPC were Jefferson's three regular season starts.)

quote:First, Jefferson did not play like shite in the GOTC. He was an integral part of that victory. Lee, on the other hand, committed his own errors.

Second, Jefferson is not the reason why LSU lost the BCSCG, and unlike Lee in the GOTC, Jefferson completed almost 65% of his passes. In the GOTC, Lee completed only one more pass to LSU than he did to Bama.

Your statement(s) emphatically imply ESPN flaws, not for me to defend.
In 2012, the ESPN QBR listed Denard Robinson and Landry Jones ahead of future 1st round picks Geno Smith and Teddy Bridgewater, as well as Aaron Murray, the SEC career leader in completions, passing yards, TD passes, and total offense.... despite the latter quarterbacks having a higher NCAA Quarterback Rating... who were the better quarterbacks?
In 2013, the ESPN QBR listed Dak Prescott, who played behind Tyler Russell, ahead of future 1st round picks Johnny Manziel, Teddy Bridgewater, and Blake Bortles, as well as Zach Mettenberger, who led the nation in 3rd down % and yards per pass.
This past year, the ESPN QBR listed Kenny Hill, who was benched midway through the season, as one of the Top 10 QBs in CFB.
There are plenty more examples from both CFB and from the NFL that I could use.... but I believe this is enough (if not the "adjustments" posted earlier) to demonstrate that there are obvious flaws within the ESPN QBR system.

you exclude them from the construction of a statistic.
Unless you have a reason to do so...and it better be damn solid (oh, and yours isnt)
then that is bad math.
so sorry, Jordan.

Thank you for the bump!
First Principles, BCS Statmaster
You brought up the ESPN QBR. You defend it.
You know what, I'm going to make up a statistic. I'm going to call it QBC. It stands for QB Color.
Jordan Jefferson = #461D7C (Hexadecimal)
Jarrett Lee = #FDD023 (Hexadecimal)
Now, prove to me that my QBCs for Jefferson and Lee are in any way inaccurate or factually incorrect.

like i said, he didn't have enough data points to make a reliable comparison. just like using three of five starts for jefferson to lee's 9 starts.
quote:
I use all of Jefferson's regular season stats, not just three games
all his regular season starts were 3 games, so what exactly are you arguing here? And I know you used his regular season starts. We all know what you used. Most of us just feel that it's disingenuous. You obviously refuse to agree to that, so there's really no point in arguing it with you anymore, as you are going to do nothing but copying and pasting the same argument.
quote:
LSU's offense performed better than in ALL nine games that Lee started. That's an important comparison.
define "better." they were against different teams. and using their national defense ranking is also disingenuous as the quality of opponents of all those teams will be drastically different depending on conference and ooc scheduling.
quote:
Are you really suggesting that the championship games are comparable to the regular season games?
i'm suggesting the games happened and removing them from the argument is disingenuous. the two only had one common opponent, alabama. they both played horribly in those starts. so, from there, you use the data you have available to you. you use all data, not the data that suits your argument the best. just because you can provide a reason as to why you remove a data point doesn't mean you were correct in doing so.

what about all the ranked games lee started, two on the road? using statistics, you could easily prove anything in the world you wanted and not be "lying" and accurately say that you're just using "facts." But how you apply stats can be misleading
