For those of you who are convinced we aren’t getting in the tournament:
Mar 17, 2019, 12:50 PM
|

You are completely ignoring what is supposedly the main criteria the NCAA has said it relies upon - the NET.
If the committee goes by the NET, which takes into account a lot of metrics, we are absolutely in the tournament.
I realize that we won’t know anything for sure until tonight, but neither do the “experts” like Lunardi.
Just because you don’t think we deserve it, or you are one of the ones who seems to enjoy being negative about our basketball team, doesn’t mean you are correct about us being out.

For once Judge has a good argument.
Each year as Snowman as indicated there is a team or two from Lunardi’s next four out that gets in. Syracuse was that profile last year.
I think we have about 50 percent chance.

What does it matter... we get in we don’t. We lose the first game in the big tournament or the second in the NIT.
We are hoping to get a participation trophy instead of figuring out how to be a team with a shot at winning it all. All you want is a shot to win everything and it doesn’t matter if we are in or out bc in the end we don’t have a shot.

Are just doing so for no reason. None of the experts have us in. Many not even close. Now they may be wrong of course but it's not ridiculous to think we may be out

I think they want it to validate their opinions that Brownell stinks and we've had a bad year.
The truth is, Lunardi, Palm, etc. aren't always right, especially as it relates to the bubble.

Man let it go... we didn’t deserve to be in after 3 weeks of play. This team was average at best just like the coach who has been in charge for 9 years. Now your charade of March is officially over just admit this team and it’s coach has sucked this year. Let’s me back in 6 years when maybe we sniff a March meaningful tourney again. Good news is CBB is a nice guy. That should make it easy for JK to justify his crap record and downplay our insignificant in basketball

Lol at Jerry Palm’s last bracket. Has three of four teams from the American in the same region. I think I heard his percentage of correct is very low...

I agree, we can't disregard the human element.

But those humans are still supposed to be guided by measurable data. Hopefully they will do so.
The data is on our side so much, that it will be a complete screw job if we don't get in.

IF the committee uses the metrics that they are supposed to use, we should be in! Whether or not they put much weight on those metrics, we won't know until tonight. Joe Lunatic has teams with a net of 70 plus in ahead of us. He may be right, but if so, they may as well throw that metric out the window,

Wouldn't it be great if there were more transparency of what is said in those closed door decisions that are being made. They wouldn't be able to manipulate their own system they say they use if there were transparency of what they say, and then actually do. If what they do is above board, then why are those decision being made behind locked doors with their voices silent. It's bc what they say they do is total-bullshit. Just as their reasons for what they do is total-bullshit also. Favoritism will always be alive and well behind locked doors and silenced rooms!!!
When teams in the exact same class as Saint Louis Billikens make it in the NCAA tournament playing the schedule that they play is asinine. How many games could we have won if we played the Saint Louis Billikens schedule, I believe a lot more than they won, and they are in and we are out. Go figure, and there isn't a reasonable reason for that when I've always thought the NCAA tournament was for getting the best 68 teams and the them battle it out to see what place they really were after playing their schedule at the end of the season. We were not allowed in bc we didn't win enough games, and the Saint Louis Billikens are in bc they played a much weaker schedule. I seriously ask, how many games could we have won playing the exact schedule that the Billikens played but, they aren't the only team in that we would have done better playing their schedule, the question to the selection committee should be, how many wins would those types teams have if they had played our exact schedule. I really don't think that they would have won that many, and less than what we won!!!

I appreciate the fact you have love for our team and our coach. But I seriously think you have blinders on. We are not a good team. We have, I think, One win in the top quadrant or whatever they call it. We have many bad loses. In my opinion we make it in the NIT and don’t go very deep until we lose.

We were correct. Look, the committee isn't going to go down a conference 8, 9 or so teams UNLESS they really stand out. They are going to give it to the midmajors. Could we beat the mids? Probably most of them. But I mean, your in a conference that you chose to be in. You need to do well in it compared to the rest. I wish Clemson had a better season, but we really didn't show anything, season long, that would make us a good choice. Maybe next year? I'm always optimistic. He7l I even would like to win the NIT one of these years . . maybe this year?. Mt perfect scenario would be to play NcSt again and actually beat them

Sorry Judge, but 24 hours later, and we are schedule to play in the NIT at 7 p.m. in Littlejohn Coliseum on Tuesday 3/19/2019. My hopes that everybody was wrong, I assure you was as high as yours. I'm one of those Tiger fan that never say that it's over until it's actually over. We can prove we were better than said by just beating everybody we have to play in the NIT!!! Go Tigers!!!
