    • Gonzaga joining the remnants of the Pac12 in what seems like more of a mildly upgraded Mountain West.

      • Blast from the past indeed...didn't know he was still alive. Led St. John's in their heyday.

          • Didn't they threaten to do that before?

            • Yeah, it’s just a vote grab statement. WVa is 19-13 and outside the KenPom top 50.

              • they also had 6 quad 1 wins while a certain other team went 1-12 in quad 1 wins and who's athletic director got a bonus of 100K if the tarheels make the NCAA

                course he stepped out of the room when it was time to debate tarheel quals

                • Playing devil's advocate. UNC was ranked 20 spots ahead of West Virginia by Pomeroy. And WVA kinda sucked post-January 1st. And they got bounced 1st round of the Big12 tourney by a god-awful Colorado team. People saying a win over Gonzaga before Thanksgiving should've punched their ticket are overstating their case.

                      • UNC

                        -The Quad1 loss numbers are bad, but honestly of those 12: Nine were vs (AP) #1 Duke, #1 Duke, #1 Duke; #3 Florida; #4 Auburn; #7 Alabama, #8 Michigan State, #10 Louisville, and #12 Clemson. All of those games are hard to hold against them, especially since they scheduled 4 of them non-con.

                        So, that leaves 3 quad 1 losses to really evaluate:

                        Kansas
                        Wake
                        Pitt

                        ————-

                        The 22-13 Tar Heels are ranked:

                        #33 KenPom
                        #36 NET (which is effectively the Quad ranking)
                        #25 BPI

                        —————

                        If instead of scheduling Alabama, Auburn, Mich State, Florida, and Kansas they had scheduled SoMiss, Central Michigan, Kennesaw State, App State, and South Alabama, they would be 27-8 and probably a 5 or 6-seed instead of the 11-seed they are.


                        You really can hurt yourself on both sides of the scheduling pendulum swing. Anyway, I don’t hate them being included. What I hate is #311 Saint Francis (16-17) getting in or #273 Alabama State (19-16) getting in (etc).

                              • The committee is a bunch of fucking morons. How could they possibly put SDSU in the field?
