NCAA Thinking of Rule Change

[jibsey]

My original concern is valid. Last four in and non automatic qualifiers. We win as an automatic qualifier and we don't play in even though we would be technically the last team in the field. The question is has it ever happened before? It would seem like a lot of teams on the edge of the field have stolen their conference championship, grabbed the automatic bid, and avoided the play in, and the NCAA was fine with it until this year when they're gonna reevaluate? So now they want to play them in or change the time frame to play them in? This is no conspiracy theory but follow everything ( facts) that happened with Nate Miles, APR, Calhoun, and then CR on forward and tell me that we were treated fairly all the way down the line. No the NCAA didn't do CR but all of those previous events factored into our ultimate predicament. Based on the past it's important to at least question an organization that effed us previously.

The play-in games should be at-large bids only. Telling a conference champion to play-in to prove you belong isn't what the NCAA Tournament should be about.

They were the last team in the bracket in a timing sense.

You are making up something that doesn't exist. If they were seeding them lower it wouldn't have impacted the first four.

They are not proposing to change who goes to Dayton.

You've not only invented a conspiracy theory - you invented the issue at hand. It has nothing to do with what you've framed.
