Big East Proved NCAA Selection Committee “Wrong Again”

to me, and hear me out, we shouldn't make generalizations about a conference as a whole based on a single elimination tournament.

anyone who does that is simply engagement farming or is delusional in my humble opinion.

Your opinion sucks…that is all. Stop making excuses.

Appreciate you acknowledging the errors of your ways because that’s exactly the timbre by which you’re trying to troll us

We can talk about this but Seton Hall, Marquette and Creighton, and even St. John’s in season BE games are harder than this. Shame they didn’t make it or played bad at the wrong time but just ask Hurley.

The Big 12 turned out to be a sea of mediocrity, yet might have been the most dominant conference in history in the NET. Time for a new computer model.

The "no 13-7 major conference team was left out" comment should be a 6-alarm fire for the conference and its national perception.

Right.

It shows, at the very least, that the football first mindset may well still be running everything.

How else would you categorize the BE as something less than a "major conference" when its members have won more basketball titles (7) than any other league in the last 25 years, other than the ACC (whose 9 titles include 2 during the time of the Afro and African American Studies cheating at uNC)? The B1G has one, the Big 12 has 3 and the SEC has 3.

Note: I counted UConn's title while a second year member of the AAC as a BE title because we're back in the BE and won in 2014 with a roster largely comprised of BE recruits, including our most important players: Napier, Boatright, Olander, Giffey and Daniels.

Speak for yourself?

You know what? I completely agree with the idea that NET is bogus. It is and was a creation to make sure major conferences get the most seats at the table. Back in the day we used to say “garbage in = garbage out”. My recommendation. Look at actual basketball games and teams’ records. Never mind the mathematical models.

Such a weird hill to die on, especially this year. The Final Four is 3 teams the NET had in the top 10 basically the entire season, plus NC St who is on a massive heater.
