Overly Excited Early Season Assessment

There is plenty of evidence. Some just choose not to see it. They’ll point to FAU in the championship last year and the final 4 overall. But that doesn’t change the fact that very few mid majors got any at large bids. They just happened to perform extremely well, which actually provides an argument that more kids should be in.

That is no different than any time in the past. It is what it is. Always has been.

It will get worse though. The whole system of college athletics will have another seismic shift in the next couple of years when the P5 football schools move away from the NCAA.

Yes. And that will be bad for the MVC. Or fans just have to shift their attention as to what the goals are.

11 of our 12 schools are now in the top 200 according to KenPom. So refreshing to see this instead of 3 schools 300+ and 2-3 schools 200+

Time for the NCAA to revise the way they do the NET rankings!

No, because despite them saying NET rankings would be used for the post season, they are only used when it benefits P5 teams. Similar to the CFP.
