Having a larger sample size, ie... eliminating our coaching staff from the equation... negates the very information your trying to un-earth. Different coaches have different pre-season strategies...therefore you just clouding your "sample" with random variables that make it meaningless. It's kind of a pointless thing to find... the only conclusion you could reach would be how coaches fare in the regular season when their strategy is to lose preseason games.

And that one doesn't work because how many coaches just lost the games because their strategies didn't work. I'm now going drink excessively if you would excuse me.
