AAC has NO representation on the committee, and it shows: LV a 4 seed? C'mon. Tenn/NCState/Iowa in over SMU?? The entire SOS argument is a smokescreen to push out the little guys and make room for at-large P5 teams. No one can convince me otherwise. Heck, NCState wasn't even on the bubble - and they get in because they beat a free-falling Cuse team in the ACC tourney? It is a joke!
Therefore, I wouldn't really feel bad about our staff ignoring the entire NCAA rulebook and going scorched earth on the recruiting trail. Have a 90's UNLV-like run for a few years, or heck, get the new Fab 5 together and win some championships. Sure, they may get taken down 10+ years form now, but who would care?
Get Myles Turner. Do whatever we have to do. Follow this class up with the entire group of metroplex 5 stars. We got jobbed - it is time to push back.
Let's do this for Football...give June an incentive to hit the road and recruit!

Well since we are playing the eff the NCAA game. Instead of breaking NCAA rules, why don't a bunch of rich private schools just say F you to the NCAA, make their own organization and pay their players. You pay these kids top dollar, you get the best ones from high school. No one will give a crap about the NCAA then.

Team lines up for the national anthem on Wednesday, locks arms, and does not move until the refs and irvine have left. Crowd gives an ear splitting smu chant throughout, we become the biggest sports headline of the year

Actually, this would be pretty cool. If that org could get an ESPN contract, it would be game on!
