What in the hell is RPI?
A formula that calculates how good you are based on your schedule and your opponents' schedules. It is used heavily in determining who gets into the tourney and their seeding.

By adding teams like Tulane, who are terrible in basketball, the basketball-focused schools are going to lose some points in their RPI - so they mad.

Now I understand. I clearly do not watch college basketball at all.

Which is a stupid and shortsighted point of view.

Tulane has been good in basketball in the past and has just shown a commitment to its basketball program, which means that we can and will be good again.

Sports teams and programs are not static.
