It’s probably a lot of the reason they have the bracket set before the weekend begins.Potential Rick Barnes vs Texas in round 2. They do this stuff on purpose.
Do people honestly believe of all the things to develop a narrative the committee thought of this. No one outside of Nebraska and weirdly Iowa give two ***** about or even know who Trev Albert’s is. Nobody cares about ADs.No way is that a coincidence. No way.
I 100% believe the committee tries to make some spicy matchups from a coaching/AD perspective.Do people honestly believe of all the things to develop a narrative the committee thought of this.

Really strange that people on here think this is some narrative worthy of the committee trying to do this on purpose.
“I wasn’t planning to watch this game but the AD going from one team to the other is going to make that game spicy” said absolute no one ever.
There sure are a lot of those random "coincidences" lining up so we play TJs former team in the first round and potentially Drake in the next round. And nevermind a year ago when a transfer out played us in the first roundDo people honestly believe of all the things to develop a narrative the committee thought of this.

They literally just rank the teams 1-68 and a computer generates the schedule based off of factors like being conference opponents and what not.Do people honestly believe of all the things to develop a narrative the committee thought of this.

KU-Wichita in 2015There sure are a lot of those random "coincidences" lining up so we play TJs former team in the first round and potentially Drake in the next round. And nevermind a year ago when a transfer out played us in the first round
Those things are actually narratives. You can actually talk for a few minutes about a coach facing his former team. You can actually get some excitement from the potential of two teams 30 miles apart playing.There sure are a lot of those random "coincidences" lining up so we play TJs former team in the first round and potentially Drake in the next round.

Coaching, probably. Location/rivalries, probably.I 100% believe the committee tries to make some spicy matchups from a coaching/AD perspective.
Potential second round matchup this year of BYU and Illinois. One university has an honor code that bars consensual premarital coitus and the was sued by it's own player so he could play while under investigation for forcible non-consent.KU-Wichita in 2015
I'm dumbfounded they passed on the Nebraska/ISU home run of a story line to be honest.I 100% believe the committee tries to make some spicy matchups from a coaching/AD perspective.

Would have needed to move Nebraska up to a 7 or us up to a 1.I'm dumbfounded they passed on the Nebraska/ISU home run of a story line to be honest.
Part of me can believe that some of the match-ups and story lines could really come across as fabricated, but I also try to remember that the committee members can't just rattle off where Otz coached before ISU and his ties to SDSU for example. Plus OTZ was last there in 2019. Thats kind of a long time ago.No way is that a coincidence. No way.

Of course, but do you really think they would purposely get Neb and A&M together because more people will watch due to an AD going from one school to the other? If so, they are even dumber than their selections show they are. The only people that would care or even know about it are already watching. They have enough requirements and restrictions in matchups, they aren’t going to rig it to get a matchup that will add exactly zero viewers.The selection committee itself is comprised of nothing but ADs, including our very own JP. So yes, they do care about other ADs, because those are their peers and whom they know the best in this industry.
I would agree, it’s a stretch to consider the talking points as a reasoning behind that choice. And there’s nothing rigged about it.Of course, but do you really think they would purposely get Neb and A&M together because more people will watch due to an AD going from one school to the other?
