College basketball has changed - totally agreed.    All the stuff you have shown though, is not relevant to established and communicated selection principles.

The "Full Body of Work" principle, that stresses all games are equal has not changed.   It's a key guiding principle that the committee has been adamant about for years and they have consistently showed with their selections and omissions .  The Last 5 or Last 10 is not given extra weight,

The problem with this board is they want to change the rules to whatever either fits the best for Syracuse or what they think is fair.   When I simply state what the rules are (without any comment on whether they are fair or not) the board does not want to hear it and comes at me with stuff like I don't understand basketball.

At this point I'm taking a break for a few days, because I'm a bit annoyed and too worked up (stupidly or not, and it could be all my fault)

The board just wants to hear what fits best for Syracuse, not what actually happens (whether it is good for Syracuse or not, or fair to them or not).
 
There is no value to me posting what actually happens and how it might impact Syracuse (fair or not, warts or not) because people don't want to listen to it if its not a positive.   And there are some positive outs there.

Go Syracuse, beat Louisville.
