KenPom Scraper Overview

Description

Authenticated scrapers for kenpom.com men's college-basketball pages. Authentication uses an httr2 cookie jar via login(); pages are pulled with .kp_get_page(jar, url) and parsed with rvest. CSS selectors for tables are fragile — KenPom changes the HTML occasionally and selectors may need updating.

Credentials are read from KP_USER / KP_PW env vars (or function args). See ?login for the auth flow.
