Announce Brad Stevens to save the year.
IU out
- Thread starter Cavanagh
- Start date
UNC in because they chaired the selection, only reason. ACC sucks. How do they and Texas make it???
True but I don't see a compelling reason for us to make it either
IU fired/retired their coach. UNC doubled down. Easy choice
Ya conference tourney games don't mean shit when we need it to, this year, they thought otherwise.
We suck.
But Xavier 1-9 and NC 1-12 is sickening.

I think the eye test on how bad and incompetent IU has played this year forced the committees decision to leave them out!
Clearly didn’t matter for Michigan.
Last games don’t unless it’s a bid stealer etc..which is very rare on a Saturday or Sunday.
Agreed. We stink but those teams have worse resumes. Ridiculous.
NC beat UCLA by 2 for their only Quad 1 win. They also have a Q3 loss. Oh, and their AD chairs the selection committee.
Never mind. Did not realize all 8 play in teams had already been decided. Oh well. No more misery with Woodson.
If IU is shit canning their coach for poor performance, why should the NCAA do anything different? It's called a mercy flush. Way past time to move on. I'm glad I don't have to watch it anymore.
IU was 54 NET and WV 51 NET. Lower than Xavier and NC. That’s all they care about.
Always 2 or 3 teams that get bumped like IU did. OTOH.....IU could have squeeked in and embarassed themselves in the Dance...again. Under the circumstances....IU hasn't got a strong argument. Hire a great coach.....and do better.
The committee couldn’t bear to see only have 3 ACC teams in the tourney.
IU did not get Phucked. They made their bed.
Then they shoulda left out Texas and Oklahoma. But also we should have won more. Oh well. Retire the coach, move on.
The powers that be decided to run this clown show back, and the exact same result as last year happened this year: whodathunkit?
Michigan was screwed. How does Purdue, who finished 3 spots lower than Michigan in the conference, get a 4 seed?
Basically…play a crazy hard pre conference schedule…or be in the SEC.
Proving it’s not about “resources” it’s about coaching
I’ll admit to being shocked even though I really didn’t want us to make it. I always look at who did you beat and who beat you and by that metric I thought we were a slam dunk especially when compared to the teams we were in competition with for those last four spots. And then to find out IU wasn’t even the first team out surprises me quite a bit…
