  1. It seems pay to play'ish but if it's in the rules it's in the rules I guess.
  2. Things like drafting works in cross country too, just the effect isn't as pronounced. In any case, in a team race scenario, you will see teammates running at paces that may not be conducive to their individual game and how they like to run a race as individuals but it's the best strategy for the team.
  3. Who is blocking the bipartisan border bill? Biden can't close the Southern Border--Trump tried and was blocked by the courts. Get the bill to the floor and give him the power to do so.
  4. The more conference games you have the closer your records get to .500 Unless you have a terrible OOC record, the fewer conference games the better.
  5. Congrats on a great season Aggies! It always sucks to not play your best at the final game of the season but overall it was definitely a season to remember!
  6. What a choke job. I thought Nevada had a strong draw too. This is going to be one of those years when only SDSU advances again, right?
  7. Virginia has lost 4 of the last 5 years in the first round all 4 to double digit seeds. #16, #13, #13 and now 10. They did win the NC, but they are unreliable in the tourney otherwise.
  8. Tournament will likely be expanded when the current contract runs out. (SEC leading the charge, but nearly everyone wants this--it's not a huge % of schools that make the postseason anymore with new D1 schools being added seemingly every year)
  9. Honestly, there's no need to have a selection committee. We can program AI to do it. Either one singular AI, or you can even program AI with various human cognitive biases that have to work together to select the teams in the same way humans do. Can use the Coaches/AP polls as the "eyes" of the AI if they want.
  10. The good news is that you get a full NCAA tourney credit for winning a "First 4" game.
  11. I thought it was a matter that the MWC technically did give the P2 a number, but it was like a million per sport and WCC was willing to do it for 80k a sport. Adding an affiliate member to come in and potentially take your auto-bids (and then leave after a couple of years) is kind of a hard sell. Especially if it might also increase travel costs.
  12. Some sort of formula involving subscribers + what they are watching.
  13. I believe all the contracts are more or less up at the same time. So 2 years. Pac-2 got to be paid as an auto-qualification conference for the next two years.
  14. I actually remember thinking it was unusual when this was all going down that they got rid of the player for having an inappropriate relationship with the coach. After reading the accusations I'm on Team Ashley. Sounds like a totally toxic environment if players are committing illegal acts to get into hotel rooms and catch them in the act.
