2022 NCAA Tournament Discussion

[WuTheOne]

When the NCAA takes 3 to 10 years to "investigate" violations (10 years to say no penalties for UNC's no class classes and 3 for KU's 5 Schedule 1 violations), it's pretty obvious the P5 and the cheaters control the NCAA.

Add NIL into the deal and schools like WSU and conferences like the AAC are on the wrong side of where college sports are headed. Lax enforcement and "legal" NIL deals that have reached $8mill for a So in HS QB have put non-P5 FB schools into a second-tier status.

It's no longer about coaching. It's about who can buy the players. Baker and VanVleet would have had major NIL offers after their Fr year F4 run. For schools that don't have huge NIL deals waiting for players it's about coaching, but that's for schools that are no longer among the top programs.

New Rule Proposal:

Banked 3s only count as 2 points.



That might have been the WORST shot of the tournament, yet it still counts as three points….

Unless you call glass upon release

Who else wonders if TW will be guarding TA today?

Hadn’t thought about it until you said it….that should be interesting.

MWC gets exposed first round and goes 0-4

So the Big 12 gets hyped up, gets a bunch of very favorable matchups in round 1 and to their credit goes 6-0... Now second round they are matched up with teams with a pulse ... Baylor currently down 23...

Also have no idea where to root for KU or Creighton.. I'm rooting for a massive fight... Enough players ejected and suspended that both teams forfeit. With KUs classless history... The chances are greater than zero.

Baylor received a 1 seed while playing in the toughest conference in the country where they won a share of the title and dealt with injuries the whole year. Then they get matched up with a UNC team who is crazy talented, but has underachieved all year. And play them while missing LJ Cryer.

But sure, they’ve been “exposed.”

A 1 seed getting down 25... Yes that's being exposed

Might be too little too late, but the Bears only down 9 with 5 and change to go.

After this was was called a flagrant 2 and Manek was ejected lol.

God, refs have been awful during this game today. Obvious calls are being missed

Definitely the worst reffed game I've seen in a long time. Really contributed to it being close again... Especially the Manek travesty

[Maizerunner08]

Also, Carolina just absolutely collapsed.

One of the worst I’ve ever seen

They went into a stall offense with 10 min left immediately after Manek was ejected. So dumb

[Stickboy46]

That was straight out of the Etienne end of half play book
