Grant took the job because it is easier to get to the NCAA’s.  Tech with UNT’s record would have been a lock for the tourney.  Also money played a part and facilities.  But those were secondary.

It's always about the money..... unless it's Smut, then it's about selling you soul!

And killing hookers. And doing blow. Let's be honest, with them, it's always about the hookers and blow.

It's both easier and harder to get in the NCAAs when you're in a league like that.  Easier because you have more chances against Quad 1 competition.  Harder because it's easier to rack up a lot of losses in a league like that.

I don't know if it's a committee/human thing, or a metrics thing, but in the end I think the selection process favors those that had opportunities.  If you have two programs on equal footing, but one never had a Q1 matchup while the other had a handful of Q1 losses, they seem to favor the latter.
