lol...wow. He really let the committee have it.

Course, yeah...I don't get it. They beat am/ won the sec tourney and am is a 3 they are a 4.

I don't care for him, but he had some good points. Said, he was told, who knows...that every member has their own criteria. Some were non-basketball folks on the committee...(why I don't know)...
 
Castiglione is one of those "non-basketball" guys and that "every member has his own criteria" sounds like total BS to me. They use all sorts of information and I'm sure some think strength of schedule is more important than top-50 wins. Some probably think good wins is more important than bad losses and some feel otherwise. That's not the same as "each member has his own criteria."

But, he's right about Kentucky vs A&M. The Aggies deserved a 4 or 5 seed and Kentucky should very been at least an equal seed.
 
Before todays game

A&M 5-0 vs top 50
Kentucky 2-2

Worst Loss
A&M @#125 Arkansas
Kentucky @#172 Auburn

A&M won the game in the regular season.

The SEC should move there tournament to help their champion, but A&M had a better resume

he did mention that...although in ref to "the committee already had it decided"...

I don't care for him at all..but he's got balls to say all that. Guess, Joe C being from a "football school" is what he ref about non-basketball people on the committee.
 
I feel terribly sorry for him. UK just can't get a break for their poor overlooked hoops program.
 
They lost to auburn, ucla, Tennessee, and LSU. That's 4 teams that are not in the tourney. 3 of those 4 have losing records. Bc LSU are not going to the nit, that means all those losses are to team's that aren't going to the nit either.

Great stat. I always enjoy Cal's whining.....solely for entertainment purposes.
 
Didn't they get a regional in Louisville? Would he prefer to be in Anaheim or Louisville?

He needs to stop complaining.
 
I wouldn't want to play them right now although I would rate it at 50-50. A&M is capable but they really don't have a lot to show away from home.
