The tourney is faaaar from perfect. A team like fdu in tbe tourney is a travesty. They are a high school team that got hot for 3 days in their aweful conference tourney. We dont have close to the "best " 68. We have about 55-58 teams and then 10-13 teams that are just aweful. I watch siena games. 4-5 teams in the maac would bury this fdu team every time. The mid majors should do what the ivy does and award the regular season winner the bid, the 4 month body of work instead of who got hot for 3 days in the end of the year tourney, the tourney is only there to generate $$$. Btw, monmouth is better than at least 10-12 teams in this tourney, they are 18-22 yo kids, they will have off nights, esp. Against their own tourney teams that know them well. Find me a team that didnt have 2-3 bad nights. To take the 7th team in 4 power 5 conferences and not monmouth is a travesty. The committee is a joke with a moving target of criteria. Problem is, they are a bunch of administrative suits who wouldn't know a basketball from a bowling ball. Get 5 historic coaches on that committee and it would give it some credibility.
