ECU with an RPI in the 20s and didnt win their tournament…in the #12 RPI conference is a bit of a surprise. But it helps to have a committee member.
Arizona hosting with a 31 RPI and 3-9 vs Q1 is also of note. But won their reg season and tourney. Kinda makes you think the Cajuns had a shot had they won theirs, although the west coast teams get a pass at times.
That’s why Deggs was talking about hosting we win our tournament makes you wonder do we get that spot from ECU or Arizona. Man that is disappointing hosting was a legitimate shot

Just for fun, I decided to put the selection rpi next to these hosts. I find it interesting that Duke and Dallas Baptist, by winning their conference championship today, passed up Oregon State, who was at #16 yesterday.

Checks notes: committe members have to leave room when their school is discussed. See also scott farmer leading the committee, were we helped?
