Bubba Cunningham. Sweet baby Jesus

These two dumb a**es have been interviewed on multiple bracket shows and they just don’t answer any questions.
They just give scripted answers and sound so full of crap.

The best part is their effusive congratulations on what a great job he did with such an impossible task.

Lol. Its literally placing basketball teams. Not digging ditches, mining coal, or splitting the atom.

This is GOLD! Thank you for stating what needs to be brought up more often. The constant compliments as if this committee served on the front line in Vietnam is always nauseating. It's a ****ing Basketball Tournament.

Then these self righteous goobers come out acting like they were tortured in a room without food/water and underwent torture when they get food catered, are staying in luxury and doing backdoor dealing. Sankey came out all giddy with "I can go back and say I got 14 teams in....." and still ACC pulled his pants down again by having Texas have to play Xavier in Dayton while UNC gets SDSU.
 
IDK if this is true, but I saw it being reported that Bubba got a six figure bonus if UNCheat made the tournament. TIFWIW.
That's a fact. It was just over $100,000. And if you don't think that breeds corruption, you really don't understand how sports work on a fundamental level. The whole business is corrupt. No one should be surprised at this point.

His wife probably wanted a new SUV. Gotta do what you gotta do.

Someone needs to simply say, “You received a $104,000 bonus because UNC made the tournament, and almost no one thought they deserved to make it. How do you justify that? Do you think your friends in the room were doing you a favor?”

They would end the interview and walk out.
 
Just another example (as if we needed another one) of why UNC’s titles post-1982 should all have an asterisk beside them. There is no college basketball program in America that has cheated more. Period.
Yes, you're absolutely right, but it's essential to also realize that the cheating is institutionalized. It's baked into the product.

What bothers me more than that, is that no reporters push the issue and try and make them answer the question about UNC.
I was listening on radio and the ENTIRE PANEL of the CBS show spent the last minute of the segment before interviewing Bubba and his buddy lamenting how UNC could have gotten in over Indiana and WVU. They listed all these statistics why UNC didnt deserve it (1 QUAD 1 win, 1 Quad 3 loss, while the other had much better numbers) and then after a 1 miute commercial break came back and completely wet their pants in the interview never addressing any of their grievances or asking any of the hard questions they were all lathered up about 1 minute ago. The only question they asked was how the discussion went when EVERYBODY knew the scripted answer would be "I left the room". NO FOLLOW UP AT ALL!!!

I was just laughing in my car listening to them.

EXACTLY. They acted like they were getting ready to rip into someone. Then they didn't even ask the real question.

And I'm assuming the reason is because of the contractual agreement between CBS and the NCAA. The almighty dollar prevents you from doing your job as a reporter.

I know right, they could literally cut a chickens head off and let it die on the last team and nobody would care. Probably make a better decision than UNC on odds alone.

Yep. It's why they've mostly stopped showing replays of BS fouls and Jimmy Dykes and his ilk justify terrible calls, like the foul on the Amari dunk attempt. ESPN has a mega contract with the SEC. I guarantee they were read the riot act about defending officials before the season.
 
“I’ve asked Attorney General [JB McCuskey] to launch an investigation into the NCAA tournament selection committee to determine if any backyard deals, backroom deals, corruption, bribes or any NEFARIOUS activity occurred during the selection process,” Morrisey said during a Monday press conference.


I just wanted to take credit for using the word NEFARIOUS before Selection Sunday's grand reveal. It's not often I get to exorcize my vocabularistic skillz using that word. I'm glad the Governor saw fit to use that word. Corruption is an easy word for this kind of shenanigan. NEFARIOUS is more like it. In so many more ways. I'm just a little disappointed we don't have any Bubba and backyard BBQ party discussions already. That's how the good ole' boy network works, folks.

A wink and a nod, and you'll get your bonus money, just don't forget me and the mrs. when you have one of your little get togethers over the summer for a BBQ, Bubba! Now, go over there and sit in the corner with nooneputsbabyinacorner there watching you. This year, I heard Rivals put a webcam to watch you and they got a member from the Kansas contingency here that has strict orders to watch you sit over there. They even got a thread on it on the Rupp's Rafters rivals message board website.....

They call it "The Corner" ... not sure why .....

Aaaaaaaaand the way these things usually work-

UNC will win a couple of games in the dance.
The Rooferee will make sure of that.
The BIAS is real.

Cunningham’s contract calls for him to receive a one month (8.33 percent) bonus of his yearly salary — which is $814,868 — should North Carolina make the tournament, per Inside Carolina.

That would total $67,905.67.


This is exactly why I loathe Duke and UNCheat.
