My first thought as well.

Espn was politicking for them to get in only for most to trash it after the fact.

Had to make sure that espn check went through first.

So now we throw out Quad 1 wins and use the eye test. Let's see how that works next year when another team has 1 Quad One win and someone brings up the eye test. They will be thrown off of the S C. And should be.

Controversy gets clicks, I guess.

Well Dickie is old and he says a lot of things, he probably doesn’t remember what he said over the week end.

Dicky V was right in ripping them. The committee know good damn well they shouldn't have seleted UNC over others (WVU) who had better quad 1 wins. Why have all these metrics systems if you are not going to use them to calibrate who gets in or not?

Why have a selection committee, pick a metric system and fill in th blanks.

Aw isn't this cute? They are letting Dick Vitale play "Good Cop." Don't fall for this stuff. The reason he changes his mind so often is that it isn't actually his opinion. He's just regurgitating what the men who sign his paychecks tell him to say.

"Eye test" is simply talking about TV viewership. College athletics have sold their soul to the Networks.

Easy to do once they’re let in.
Just shows the truth.

Eye test comes down to ties and too close to decide.

This wasn’t even remotely close. UNC has no damn business in this tourney.

Seems like DV really only remembers about 24 hours of existence at a time at this point.

Ya build 'em up and then knock ''em down.
