That's what I still can't get over. The fact Loyola-Chicago would not have made the tournament last season had they been upset in their conference tournament. And yes, it's sickening to listen to...
It's obvious that no matter what changes are made to the formula the same old biases on the Committee aren't going away. St. John's makes the field with a NET ranking of 73 and an RPI of 66, while...
Just to show you how little respect the non-power schools have in this whole process, UNC-Greensboro was a No. 1 seed in the NIT field and their 1st round game didn't make television. They were...
It's judgement day for the Selection Committee. It will be interesting to see how they handle the new NET rankings, both selections and seedings. I also want to see how the NIT selection committee...

Interesting interview yesterday on SiriusXM with Jerry Palm. It appears the group meeting on Friday already knows what a composite ranking might look like. Officially, this wouldn't be put in place...
Big discussion on SiriusXM's college sports channel on Monday about these possibilities. It spanned across multiple shows throughout the day. Teams on the bubble over the past decade were...
