This guy is fantastic! Anyone see this interview with him and the trutv crew?

Said the big boys get chartered planes and stay at the Hyatt. They had to take a bus and are staying at the Holiday Inn. Lol, is that true? If so, kinda messed up. NCAA caste system.

Seeding definitely dictates hotels. Better seed, better hotel.
 
Probably easier to drive from Atlanta to Jax than it is to fly an entire team with equipment.
 
Remember reading about the crappy hotel southern Illinois got in the 2002 dome regionals
 
The NCAA pays travel costs. I was told that if a school is within a certain distance (maybe 250 miles?), the NCAA only pays the bus costs, so the school pays extra if they choose to fly. I believe this came up when SU went to Pittsburgh and choose to fly there.
 
At least they're not at a Red Roof Inn.
 
The travel costs and bussing vs flying doesn't irritate me as much as the hotel situation does. So big name schools stay in Hiltons and Marriots while smaller schools stay in the Holiday Inn? Am I the only one who thinks that's hilariously unfair?
 
I love this guy, I hope Georgia State keeps winning.
I hope they do, too. They are my Cinderella team! I have them going to the Sweet 16 (however, playing VCU - so that didn't work out!). I've heard that Hunter is a great coach, according to the Atlanta papers. And his son seems like a decent person.
Right now Cincinnati and Kentucky are playing. Go U.C. Can I only watch the Cincinnati players and close my eyes when the UK players are shown?
 
As the opposite, Xavier is not fun to watch. Butler 2.0. I'm not ready to lose Ron Hunter from my life. Lets go GA State!
 
Some more awful officiating. Ahhhh CBB is so much fun. It all comes down to who the refs **** over less.

Yeah, he never extended an arm - it was just a spin move where someone fell down - I think from having his own guy knock him off balance. Seemed like an obvious no call.
 
Uhhhhhhhhhh, What is happening? The officials are really falling apart over the past few minutes.
 
Random make-up call?

What is happening...
