I know it's hard to believe, but . . .

The NCAA are lying assclowns.

Syracuse got placed with UNC Greensboro in the NIT. They interviewed the NIT chairman after and said that thought didn't even cross their mind when they were making the bracket. He said it with a straight face too.

Do they think people are stupid?

It's this type of dishonesty that gives the NCAA a bad rap. Just say the truth. Who cares?

My brain is mush, so I'm struggling a bit. Remind me the connection with Syracuse and UNC-Greensboro. Please and thank you.

Never mind. Greensboro. ACC Tournament. Boeheim shoots his mouth off.

Jimmy B talked massive $hit on having the ACC tournament in Greensboro (real douche-like, like JB is masterful at).

Relatively hot mid-major versus big name but somewhat struggling P5?

Just a WAG.

Also, believe me, IF WSU plays UK, they WILL have revenge on their minds

I like the theory, but with what players? JRS and Bush? They're the only current players that were on the 2014 squad, right?

Boeheim smarted off about having the ACC tourney in Greensboro. Said there was "no value" in playing there. Basically he was crying like he always does.

Then the Greensboro Minor League Baseball team announced that they would be holding a "Jim Boeheim (No) Value Night". 20 dollars in free food and drinks for anyone with a Syracuse drivers license.

Then Syracuse gets scheduled in the NIT in Greensboro.

I believe Shaq was redshirting that year.

Ah, yes. Correctomundo.

You don't think the Seniors or Shaq want revenge for Ron and Fred (and Cle)?! I know 3Gs damn sure ain't forgotten about that loss!!

The juniors had all signed and were following their future team so i'm sure they at least remember the game.

Syracuse is a 1 seed in the NIT, they will be playing at home which is the only chance they have to win.

Sorry .. you are correct. They are playing Greensboro.

[Aargh]

Another thing the Committee did with WSU/Dayton. WSU is not happy with a 10 seed. They're likely to play with some motivation. Dayton is not happy being the underdog to a higher seed. They're likely to be playing with some motivation.

It is interesting that WSU/Dayton gets the prime spot on CBS at 7 Eastern on Friday night. That means it is projected to be the most-watched game that night. KU is playing at the same time on TNT.

[OregonShocker]

While I appreciate the positive view of our seeding, I can PROMISE the committee did not say, "Let's help WSU by making them a TEN seed instead of a 6-7-8!"

I see a locker room visit before the game from 3 motivated alumni...
