Hosed

It looks like we were royally snubbed in the NCAAs this year. While absolute garbage teams got in, we are stuck playing in the NIT. It's not all that bad, considering there are some formidable teams in there along with us, but I think Syracuse should have told the NCAA to shove it. Like Boeheim said, if 10-6 in the Big East doesn't get a team in the tournament, then we don't belong there. Take us out of the conference, it's not serving it's purpose for us. We finished IN FRONT of 2 teams in the Big East that GOT INTO the tournament.

Yeah, our non-conference schedule sucks, as it does every year, but I don't care. We beat GOOD teams in the conference. Most other schools can't say that, as most of the other conferences are INFERIOR to the Big East. Yes, I said it. Your school's conference is probably inferior. The ACC this year was in my opinion overrated, as it always is. The ACC is always made out to be this super conference, but it's really not. The SEC is always a good conference, but this year fell apart somewhat, especially Clemson. The Pac-10 is a joke, and is highly overrated, as I think that Oregon is the only team that will go really far, and UCLA will win a couple games. Yes, anything could happen, but this is my opinion. If you don't like it, I could care less. I am just so sick of getting shafted like this. We have a hell of a year in 2004-2005, and who do we end up playing? A great Vermont team. We got a 4 seed, and that was another shaft. The committee is filled with a bunch of morons.

I'm pissed because we deserved to get in and didn't. If we played bad at the end of the year, OK. But we didn't. We beat the hottest team in basketball. They have won 16 of 17 games. Who beat them? US. I feel bad for Demetris Nichols, Mookie Watkins, Terrence Roberts and Matt Gorman, who are leaving this school after playing in the NIT and not the NCAAs. These guys were good for us and got shafted. The committee also shafted thousands of fans who will not forget this.

The fact that now I am rooting for Texas for my bracket is pathetic... but oh well, I could really care less now. Time for baseball season. After we win the NIT.
