Wake has made what, like three NCAA tourneys in the last 20 years? I think they have one tourney win in the past two decades. You'd think their fans would just go hide somewhere instead of talking about anybody else. LOL

Who's the Wake fan you're trying to poo talk? @Davidson Deac II hasn't done any trash talking and I'm not a Wake fan.

Congrats to UNCC for keeping their streak of irrelevance going.

I could've sworn you were a Wake fan. My bad.

It's alright. I'm much more of a general fan these days than a diehard of any college team regardless of the sport. But I do love picking on UNC fans. You guys are just as bad as the Duke fans when it comes to defending your team.

Hell, I'm sitting here saying we didn't deserve to be in the tournament and sneaking in as the last team in like landing a fat girl at last call with our AD as the chair of the selection committee is just the absolute worst of optics.

What shocks me is how many UNC fans seems thrilled. Thrilled with a play in game to be an 11 seed. WTF??? We've gone from playing for titles and expecting 1 or 2 seeds to just being thrilled to be a footnote.

Yeah, getting in because your AD is on the committee is a bad look. That said, I doubt the AD or school cares. Don't they get paid for tourney appearances?

Oh, that AD cares a LOT right now. He just inked Hubert to a big extension, had to sit on that news for months because we sucked and he had to wait until we could string together a couple of wins against bad teams to publicly announce it, everyone knows Hubert should either be fired or be on the hottest of seats and instead he's tied the program at the hip to this guy for the foreseeable future. Bubba Cunningham REALLY needed this team in the tourney to try to sell some type of "win".

Sounds like UNC needs to fire both and just eat the contracts.

I don't think we can afford to fire Hubert right now after the Belichick deal. I think Bubba's seat is red hot though. If this Belichick thing turns into a circus and Hubert keeps putting trash on the hardwood that dude is GONE.

UNC got in for the same reason 789 SEC teams got in.  It is what it is.
