re: Who knows who is on the committee for deciding who gets into the NCAA tournament?

Long interview with CPM & he said that in 2011, when the Tigers didn't make it, he was told by a friend on the committee that, with no SEC representative on the committee, " there were a couple of members on that committee that had such disdain for the SEC that there was no way that they were going to let LSU in. In fact we were on the board (to make the tournament) when they went to bed the nite before .And when the committee showed up the next morning someone had erased LSU off the board. That's how emphatic they were about not letting LSU into the tournament that year".
