Message: [QUOTE="wallman, post: 3087697, member: 1736"] You can go around and around on SOS, RPI etc etc but the committee made a fool of themselves by saying it was due to some of those factors and then placed Miss St as 1 seed. Using those factors IMO would only possibly help with who they give lower seeds and bids too, and they even messed that up with Tenn. You cannot have it both ways. The funny thing is they should have just said it was due to injury, Uconn being the one which could affect them the most, which personally is why I think they did it, but they didn't have the balls to say it. The NCAA only cares about dollars and who and what gives them the most dollars. They have been making decisions NOT based on rules or facts openly for several years now. The Shepard decision last year, the AO decision regarding money when they would not allow the swimmer at Stanford, sorry cannot remember her name. One thing I immediately thought of was whether leagues like the AAC would challenge the NCAA or in some other fashion, as the comment regarding conference strength is not in the hands of the individual team. Once a team has won the conference, the strength has nothing to do with it. How can they honestly say a conference strength is used against teams. This could have ramifications if independent teams started to pop up and decided to create their own national schedule and tournament. Jay Bilas would be front and center putting down the NCAA and what he argues as their corruption. [/QUOTE]
