Michigan State, North Carolina, Texas Tech, or Florida State

I had to dig this up.  I didn't know Katz was fired last year from ESPN.  I feel so out of the loop.

14 seed?! No one puts baby in a corner.

1 C-USA team.  So he expects us (as of now) to win C-USA & be rewarded with a 14 seed.   Fantastic.  😒

Wouldn't a 14-seed be our best seed in program history?

I’m commenting on the perceived strength of our league.

This really ticks me off. CUSA has had upsets every year since 2015. 4 years in a row, our solo rep has had an upset win round 1 inclusing MTSU upsetting number 2 Michigan State in 2016. They need to this like FIFA does the World Cup. The success of each continent in a given world cup can help sway how many slots each continent gets in the next world cup since it's included in their measure of relative strength. It's all based on metrics.

If C-USA is getting at least an upset per tournament, not only do they deserve more reps per tournament but also better seeding. Dock the conferences who put 5 teams in the tournament with only 1 going past the 2nd round in the tournament.

It has nothing to do with wins and losses...it is all about money...fill in the blanks with dollar signs.
