Andy Katz’s Power 36: Who’s In The NCAA Tournament?

[UofCT]

They upgraded their B.B. conference and cheated like crazy

I stand by my statement

They upgraded their B.B. conference and cheated like crazy

Please explain...

Keith Frazier is the reason we got put on probation (and still paying the price with less scholarships for the next 2 yrs). "Frazier took an online summer course before enrolling in freshman classes. An S.M.U. team assistant secretly completed Frazier’s work, an N.C.A.A. report found" (this was Ulric Maligi who left immediately and is now at A&M doing the same stuff). UNC was caught doing this in over 3,000 instances and got nothing. But, since we are SMU we miss a postseason and 9 scholarships. Pretty sure most big basketball schools are doing this all over the country to snag recruits. No money is being passed around like all of these Adidas schools. SMU's instance was a small blip on the radar but the NCAA has to punish the little guy for schools like you.

Other than that, please explain how we are "cheating like crazy." Is it because we have done more with less talent? Is it because we have less players on our bench than every team in the country but still win conference titles? Is it because we kick your ass every year? We don't get high profile recruits like UConn, or like UConn used to..but we figure out a way by playing hard and having a home court advantage. Our 2 & 3 stars turn into NBA players through good coaching. See Sterling Brown, Ben Moore, soon to be Shake Milton, and hopefully Jarrey Foster. You can add Semi Ojeleye to the list who was a wash-up at Duke but came to SMU with the proper role and excelled (yes I know he was a very high profile recruit for Duke). Now he's guarding Lebron James. But, that's only because we're cheating I guess.

This may come as a shock to you my post had almost nothing to to do with SMU.
Maybe the dumbest school in NCAA history who while caught paying football players and under sanction continued paying other players to buy their silence.
You guys self inflicted a mortal wound. You lucky the AAC came along and somewhat breath a little life into you.
If your going to come to an opposing teams board ,which is actually pretty stupid, grow a pair.

Ohhhhh the irony.

Your right coming to an opposing teams board trolling how you always kick our ass then getting whipped by a freshman team
That’s ironic

 

[Balker]

How many wins do we need to not be a bubble team??

Just one win. Positively speaking we're a bubble team with each loss as well.
