Pitt Opponents in First NET Rankings

[pittchagg]

Pitt is #81. https://www.ncaa.com/rankings/basketball-men/d1/ncaa-mens-basketball-net-rankings

Just for clarification, here are what constitutes a win in each "quadrant":

Q1: 1-30 (home), 1-50 (neutral), 1-75 (away)
Q2: 31-75 (home), 51-100 (neutral), 76-135 (away)
Q3: 76-160 (home), 101-200 (neutral), 136-240 (away)
Q4: 161+ (home), 201+ (neutral), 241+ (away)

So, here's where each of Pitt's opponents stand, both that we've played to date and will play until the next rankings come out.

FSU - 27 (Q1 win)
Nicholls - 114 (loss, would have been Q3)
RMU - 317 (Q4 win - ouch!)
WVU - 12 (loss, would have been Q1)
Monmouth - 250 (Q4 win)
Ark-PB - 342 (Q4 win)
KSU - 131 (Q3 win)
NW - 174 (Q3 win)
Rutgers - 61 (Q2 win)
Louisville - 8 (loss, would have been Q1)
NIU - 192 (would be Q4 win)
Binghamton - 297 (would be Q4 win)

To date, we have 1 Q1 win, 1 Q2 win, 2 Q3 wins, and 3 (potentially 5 by the end of the week) Q4 wins. Missed an opportunity for a Q3 win against Nicholls, and obviously two opportunities for Q1s against WVU and Louisville. Robert Morris could sneak into being a Q3 over time, and Northwestern and/or KSU could end up being Q2s. Overall, not a bad out of conference run for resume purposes.

Weren't we like top 20 in the initial NET ranking last year? Given that, I'd expect these rankings to normalize and change quite a bit in the next month.
