Mike Davis is a loose cannon. Hard, at this point, to figure him. As a player, at Bama, he was not that much...compared to others. But he has an incredible big mouth, which was noticed last year. And, even more so this year. He fits in well with the IU tradition. Heck, he might throw a...

ROFL. And, now you see how much I know about the selection process. LOL. We're in; and that's what counts. But, to continue the dicussion about the selction process, will offer my opinion. The Committee are just folks like us. And, they view things in their own perspective. IMO, I thought...

We are very fortunate to have a "road" in the NCAA's at all. RTR!!!

Well, TIDE4EVER, I certainly respect your viewpoint. However, no disrespect intended, but I wouldn't be too surprised if the NCAA Selection Committee knew just a wee bit more about college basketball than you do. I know it's a stretch. So, just take my comments as my uninformed, humble...

IMO, all great comments. Of course, I side with the ones that put us "in". But, a note about the Selection Committee (SC). The RPI, while very important (depending on which one you look at), is not the be all, end all. And, I subsribe to the dang thing now it's gone pay for view. The SC...

And you are very correct Pluck...Dean was not an instant hit at UNC...and neither was Coach K at Dook.

Man, do I agree with elizabama and others. The points about Bama bball vs. fball are so true. Ask C.M. As for Mark. IMO, Mark is one of the top five young coaches in the nation. And, Mark plays by the rules. And, he graduates players. And, he puts them on the SEC all-academic team. When...

Nice thought. But not reality. Maybe. But, this year could be a better year for it to happen. The ACC is way off (look at their NC's vs. SEC)....the Big 10 turns out to be nothing. Who knows. RTR!!!

I think you have a great point there. But LSU is going to be tough. Want the same we want. And, in some ways, have more talent. We'll see. RTR!!!

Think we are in? Not so sure. This was only USC.

I agree. And, we are not deserving of an NCAA invite with a losing SEC record. There are more teams, more exciting, and more deserving. RTR!!!

I agree with Joe. Even league record, we are likely in. 7 - 9, is doubtful. You would think an NCAA at large bid would at least be .500 in their conference...inlcuding the ACC, Big 12, and so on. One of the selection committee members said they would not take a team below .500 in their league...

To add a bit. I am just not sure Lang is an NBA player from HS. From two perspectives. He is defintiely not a lottery pick in the NBA...nowhere close. With the skills that NBA players have, they would make him look like an idiot...at this point. Yes, I have seen him play in person. James...

ROFL!!! You go elizabama!!! I like you already. RTR!!!

Duke, UNC, and some others did not pass on Lang because of the possibility he might go to the league. They all recruited Lebron James; think he might be good? ACC schools all passed because of lack of potential talent. And, maybe moreover, the fact, even with help, Lang had no chance of being...
