Top Pick Proficiency
Note: "C" is the number of times a player correctly predicted the winner of the NCAA tournament. "Pct" is the percentage of years a prognosticator correctly picked the winner. "TPP" is the Top Pick Proficiency, calculated by averaging the actual finish of the predicted winner using 'Ganza scoring. If the TPP is 7.00, the player correctly predicted the winner every year. If the TPP is 1.00, the team the player predicted to win lost in the first round of the tournament each year.
