You guys need to win the tourney. You'll never get in if you're at 85 right now. You have 4 games left with teams in the upper 200's, and only 1 in the 70's and 1 in the 90's. Win those 2 and you can make up some ground, but it won't be enough. The 4 near 300 rpi games won't help at all. You need to get into at least the 40's to even have a chance. Winning all the way to the championship game might get you in the 50's....maybe. But losing the championship game might even set you back a few spots. But if you win it, you're obviously in anyway.

Don't be like that. UH success in hoops helps the rest of us in the west to get the hell out of this POS conference.

Boom goes the dynamite.

Yes, I know this... but if you actually believe that Jurich made the call without Pitino's consent or counsel, then you're pretty damn clueless. This was a move to try and save future recruiting classes... nothing more and nothing less. Thinking that the head coach wouldn't be involved in that discussion is a pretty ignorant belief. 

 

So I'm clueless because you have no bearing of the actual situation, other than your own wild speculation.

 

I bet you thought the MWC coaches were counseled on the MWC cutting the teams in the tournament down to 8, huh? The outrage is just for them to save face, huh?

All is well, For Rice is gone.

Comparing a decision made by the conference in regards to the tournament, and an AD making a decision about a post-season ban are two entirely different things. I do have a pretty decent bearing on the situation, as it's been covered quite extensively out here by a number of different sources.

It's not. You think leaders have to counsel their coaches on everything? They probably should, but they don't.

 

Show me a source where people believe Pitino wanted postseason ban this year.

Word from the NCAA MBB Committee is that about 14 leagues could get multiple bids if don’t win conference tourney. Hawaii is on the list…

Oh and how does that crazy math work out?

IIRC, the BigLots has had two teams in the dance exactly once in the last 15 years or so. So they're all giddy with anticipation and let's not go ruining their fun.

Boom goes the dynamite.

Read Marcus' tweet. As lousy as the BigLots is, if Hawaii stumbles in the conference tourney prior to the title game, it's to the NIT they will surely go.

I think that there's only one way for the conference to even have an outside chance of getting two teams in the tourney. One of Fresno/UNM/Boise as well as SDSU would have to win out, and then whichever of the teams that won out would have to beat SDSU in the tourney. Even if that were to happen, I still only see us as being a one-bid league.

A Stever20 on one of the AAC sites put his Rankulator up on the 17th of the month. Considerable variance from Warbow. However Pig tells me only Warbow and the Pope are incapable of error.

I think you guys need to root for a school of 5000 people on the Jersey Shore because if Monmouth loses in the MAAC Tournament I don't see how the committee can keep them out, wins over Notre Dame, Georgetown, UCLA and USC. They did lose to Iona and Manhattan but they have a really good resume, will have 25 wins and a good RPI.
