That's a legitimate disadvantage.

CRP made no friends at the NCAA this week

Partially confusing as Rothstein kind of made this seem like this is a change to how it’s been handled in the past - it’s not.

I think if we’re really on the bubble come selection Sunday the committee will give us the edge. CBS would much rather have SJU and Pitino in over a team like Mississippi State

Yeah once I realized that, it made me sad to think that since we haven't been on the bubble in a long time/consistent basis, that no one knew this already existed.

First thing I thought of was the soundbites

Yep. We were the last team in in Mullin's final season, other than that there haven't been any other toss ups for us going into selection sunday

Is that the actual number? Rose Hill is very small but when I watch there appears to be people there with a fairly enthusiastic student section. They must have the worst home vs away record in the country. Including even Depaul.

633 fans a game in 2021-2022 season.

That's a legitimate disadvantage.

Especially given the team's recent successes in the BET.

I remember the last time the team played on Friday, in Y2K and even made it to Saturday that year. The MSG edge baring its claws.

They are already stroking themselves trying to figure out how to make St. John's play New Mexico. If Louisville didn't suck they'd actively be trying to figure that out too.

That makes sense. I'm sure the numbers are up for 22-23 and 23-24 post their Renaissance. They've been the Depaul of the A10 forever and now they're not.

Covid a factor

Doesn’t the BE allocate tickets evenly for all 11 teams? How the F is that considered a home game. Total F ing bull shit.

ACC done with Barclays

Two more Top 25 teams go down to unranked teams last night. It seems the only bubble team without a win against a ranked team is us. This does not bode well.

Appreciate our consistency Gene

Only until this team beats a couple of them over the next few weeks.

Kalkbrenner getting lob after lob out of pick and roll against Xavier. Would love to get that kind of easy offense from Maker in a few years.
