    JUST IN: #Selections Committee is down to 8 teams! They’re evaluating who’s the last 4 in and who’s the last 4 out. #soclose— NCAA March Madness

    I can live with the fact that NC State gets snubbed as long as SMU and Arz State get the same fate.

    To consider a team with a Non Conference strength of schedule of 230-250 (Arz State) and 300-320 (SMU) is idiotic to me.

    I still say that if the Selection Committee has a sense of humor (and you know they do) we’ll play the Desert Fox in Dayton.

    No matter what, either way we’ll be mentioned one way or the other on the talking head shows. We’ll have some making our case and others denigrating us as much as they can.

    Either way, Seth “Uncle Fester” Greenberg will have nothing good to say about us. I barely found him tolerable during the season this year, but after his stream of insults towards us an TJ Warren the past couple of days, he’s become a channel-changer whenever I see his smug face on the television.

    ASU is a lock so be prepared to PO’d.

    The RPI is a flawed measure. The BCS is far superior. It uses point differential in games.

    If you asked opposing NCAA coaches which bubble teams they’d rather not play…NC State would be at the top. We are playing top 25 basketball right now.

    Played 4 freshman and 2 sophomores. Different team than beginning of the season.

    Ron Wellman knows this. He’s voting us in…how much sway does he have with other selection members. Do they resist his ACC bias??

    You know they’d just love to put the Pack into a play-in game against Arizona State.

    Karma would be the Pack playing the Fighting Sendeks. Not that I expect such but it would be karma – especially if the Pack sent them back to the desert with their tales tucked.

    “Ron Wellman knows this. He’s voting us in…how much sway does he have with other selection members.”

    Question – do committee members have to recuse themselves when it comes to their conference or just their own team? Curse his name, I think I remember Fowler saying that from his days on the NCAA TSC.

    Has to be teams. Otherwise any one from s major conference would be leaving constantly

    Let’s hope Wellman represents well then.

    Really, the ACC deserves six. I’d love for it to be us, obviously.

    Also, I should add that I hope Wellman remembers how his Demon Deacons won in W/S against us and how that victory may mean the difference.

    I dunno how many times I have to say this…but it’s FIGHTEN SENDEKS.

    With an “e” and no apostrophe. Don’t question why, that’s simply what it must be.

    We are playing top 25 basketball right now.

    You have to ignore alot of crap like @Clemson and Miami in Raleigh to support that conclusion.

    PS = It’s 37F and snowing in Central VA now.

    They are talking ice here tomorrow. Seppuku is a viable option for me.

    So, we’ll know what’s what by 6:00 or 6:30?

    I think we know what is what right now. Our next game is in Reynolds.

    I texted NIT Stan to see if we are gonna get a 1 seed or be screwed onto the 2 line. Haven’t heard back.

    Oh, dear God. Are we gonna have to listen to Doug Gottlieb in addition to Seth Davis on the selection show? Jeebus.

    Way too much optimism in here.. hopefully that good cheer will be sustained during the NIT selection process.

    Can someone please explain why we all lament Herb Sendek again?

    I would like them to ask Wellman why in the hell he is hanging on to Bzzzz.

    Because we were burned at the stake in local and national media for not being satisfied with his brand of mediocre basketball. People still think he was fired from NC State.

    Now we need him to fail so we can all look back and say, “I told you so….”

    but Herb didn’t personally do anything to us, right? If so I’ve either forgotten or just moved on.. either way it’s better for my health that way.
