If this were the NFL, South Carolina would be fined heavily and docked draft picks for failing to disclose the injury to Coates. And it will materially affect the outcome of this Tournament. They should have been #4 instead of Baylor.
The NCAA negatively factors in injuries when a team loses games down the stretch after the injury, OR the injury occurs in their final game and the committee has to speculate that the injury will hurt them. Neither of those apply here, as SC won the SEC tournament without Coates, thereby proving that could beat quality teams without her.
