Not sure I am all in on that the Networks influence the selections or seedlings.
For example in the Woman’s tournament the two biggest names are Clark from Iowa and Reese from LSU. The have put womens BB on the in the limelight. They played for the championship last year. This year Iowa is...
Of course the Networks and NCAA promote the Tournament. That has zero to do with intentional bias in selection.
The fuss has been about bubble teams and a couple of over seeded teams out of 68 teams.
The Committee did a very good job this year.
Break break - the NET/Quad system has major...
Basketball is not a huge draw in SEC Land. It is Huge in B1G land and parts of ACC Land. The Big 12 is everywhere so who knows. TV isn’t making extra money off having MISS ST sand USC East in the Tournament vice Saint John’s, UCLA, Maryland or many other Basketball Schools.
My point is they should nNot get that. According to GT33 the NCAAT should operate the same way and use past year performance as a reason to select teams.
You think that is correct?
I think the question becomes what do you consider a late season run? 5 games, 10 games, 15 games or some other number?
For NCST their wins/losses were:
Five games - 5-0 ACCT
Ten games - 6-4 including the ACCT
Fifteen games - 8-7 including the ACCT
For 5 games they were on a historic run. For...
As has been discussed the NET/Quad system is a significant flaw. But looking at prior years for selecting teams is stupid and wrong.
I assume you agree with that. If not then never complain when the SEC gets the benefit of past performance in the CFP.
Current season results are what count...
Using your words then Alabama was a proper selection over FSU as that Bama team returned a lot of their players from their prior years very successful teams and should have been given the benefit of the doubt while FSU has been a poor team for years prior to this past season. Heck UGA as a 2...
Stinger do you believe prior year performance should be a factor in selecting teams or seeding teams for the current year's NCAA Basketball Tournament?
That is my point of view. Past season's success should NOT influence the current season's selections or seedings. That would be stupid in my opinion.
I take that GT33 is saying that the ACC's prior year accomplishments/success should be a factor in selecting and seeding teams for the current...
Kind of like how the SEC should get extra slots in the CFP because of past performance success? You on board with that? I am not.
Every season is a stand alone season and every team is an individual team.
My view is the process has gone too far counting early season games. Yes we want teams to play good non conference games but it’s only 1/3rd of the season.
LOL - then we would be to blame when, pick a conference's fans got butt hurt when their conference only got 5 teams in. More fun as an Old Fart to find fault than actually find a solution. Gosh I would make a good Congressman! :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:
Obviously I don't like the metric system...
That could be the implication. But as I said what coach ever says he is bringing in the wrong kind of guys? The unemployed coach. I take it as a lot of coach speak. Not a lot different than we want toughness. What coach says they want softness. These are coach speak words said by 90% of all...
Cadeau normally gets 24 minutes, Trimble gets 17 and Wojoik get 8 per game. Big change. My guess is Weathers was in to play defense on Nelson as Withers is 6'9" and much more mobile than Bacot and Bacot having foul trouble. If that was his strategy it failed! I would have had Trimble in the...
If you go line by line 1-68 they clearly used it as a tool. It is not "The Law" but it carries outsized influence. As I said USCE seemed way overseeded. It would be interesting to have heard the discussion on that one.
You understand the main flaw with the system I assume. It is not in...
If you look at the minutes played Cadeau played a total of 13 minutes, very few in the 2nd half. Trimble played 11 minutes total. Davis never could get the 5th guy who could match up defensively on Alabama and provide any type of offense. UNC had 5 guys play between 4 and 15 minutes. Of the...
