Big Sky - despite their rpi ranking, I doubt Weber State has a chance at an at large bid, so it shouldn't matter for the SBC who wins the auto bid.

*C-USA - I'm curious as to why you think the SBC would want Western Kentucky to win the auto bid when Charlotte has the higher rpi. And, ideally, the Cajuns would want North Texas to play Louisiana Tech in the championship game, as long as Tech does not win it.

Summit - St. Thomas is transitioning to Division 1 so they are not eligible to play in the conference tournament this season.

*Ok, I just saw that Marshall eliminated Charlotte.

I still think that TxSt has a shot at an at large. I would rather they not have to worry about Weber or WKU, who have a better RPI than UNT.

North Texas all over Neck 6-0 early for a spot in the Championship.

By spending so much time focusing on RPI do we in essence harm ourselves? Shouldnt focus be on a new system, since hoops determined that RPI was obsolete, either it is or it isnt. How could it be a good indicator in one sport and bad in another?

The current active combined win streak for UL softball and football is at 25. Do you think this is best in nation, and if so will the “media” highlight it?

Focus should be on winning in a schedule set up to maximize RPI. We do not have a new system, though we probably should.
