The NCAA Tournament doesn't need help with the ratings.


They do with the opening night of games on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Fair point, I guess.

But games on TruTV on Tuesday and Wednesday night aren't going to have any effect on the next contract agreement between CBS, Turner and the NCAA, sponsors, etc.

I'm just trying to put myself in the shoes of the committee. This team is maddening to watch, but for once, we have the marquee player in college basketball.

I'm not even saying I agree with our inclusion, but the Simmons hype will be enough to get us in.

Lebron shoots off balance and is NOT a good shooter outside of 12 feet. Please.

True, but higher ratings this year could drive the cost of advertising next year. That being said, I think I'd prefer to watch Impractical Jokers over a Tim Quarterman ballhogging shite show...

They don't even know where the bubble is to get on it. I know where it's at. It's on the bench by Horsby and it is popped. Less than 1% LSU makes the NCAA tourney even it they only lose 3 more games. Their only chance is for them to luck up and win the SEC tourney and for Kentucky to lose 2 of their starters to injury. Case closed. Get over it. Wait till next year.

Well, duh. If they lose a total of 14 games, they won't get in.

This isn't their "only chance." Kentucky losing starters to injury will have no bearing on whether or not we make the tournament.

Joe Alleva is on the committee and this ISN'T the time to lobby. It's after the complete body of work is done and the committee is contemplating an opponent for Chattanooga/Oregon State/Valparaiso. Think LSU won't have the upper hand to sneak in the tournament with the best player in the nation?
