Jamie Pollard had us as the last 2 seed in his submission
- Thread starter Cfinnerty16
- Start date
hearing his own voice on radio is his ASMR
Why even say that out loud? Get a clue about your optics Pollard.

And his interview makes it sound like we beat Houston just the one time, as opposed to the huge pile of big wins we had, the 2nd place spot in the nation's best conference, and the fact that the only win he's counting there happens to be the most dominant performance over a #1 since 19freaking68, and that one took a UCLA dynasty team to accomplish.
Comes off showing that he didn't understand the process or criteria at all, and that maybe he didn't even notice his own team;s outstanding season.
I couldn’t listen to the whole thing. Did he mention we were down a starter when we lost those games?
My biggest take away was I wish we could have kept Emery in the DSM market.

Nope. With the awareness he showed, he might not even know.
It's interesting how Houston had a NCSOS of 194, but got the second #1 seed ahead of Purdue with a NCSOS of 9 and UNC with 25. Guess exceptions can be made.
The committee did a crappy job. Move on...the tournament has started,
We can still let them know they suck. We don't have to just accept mediocrity.
You move on, I’m going to talk about how much Pollard sucks for a while longer.
Whether you like him or not he is talking out both sides of his ass. You can't say every game counts the same but prioritize OOC SOS over overall SOS.
Maybe Pollard-related topics should be included in the opt-in rivals forum. **** Pollard! Pollard must be destroyed!
I am going to post this and forget it and focus on winning what is in front of this.
North Carolina and the 4 2 seeds all had a total of between 10 and 11 quad 3 &4 games this year. Arizona actually had a quad 3 loss. Connecticut and Iowa State had 9 quad 4 games.
Does it really matter if some of your quad 3 or 4 games are in conference or out of conference? It should be how many you play.
I think Jamie's tweet back in December bragging about our scheduling prowess caused others in the ACC and the committee to punish us, which they did.
Now let's go win the next 6 and prove them wrong!

To me it's not just an ISU thing; the brackets are all over the place and letting someone like VA in while others had better resumes for example isn't going by any criteria.
I don't recall a when it was this fangled across the tournament and there needs to be a correction next year.

This x100. We just got off of one of the best weekends of cyclone basketball and everything is still ahead of us. Enjoy it. Life is too short to spend 5 days ******** about 3 spots.
I’m going to live forever.
