Because Loyola and sister Jean making the final four will cause viewership to drop.
And how about the numerous midmajors hurt after being passed over for an 18-15 or 19-14 P5 team with under .500 conference records. Your pocket was hurt, no sympathy.
Definitely sounds like he lost some scratch on that game, and not just ratings.At least he didn't blow smoke up everyone's azzes. His whining about UK's missed free throws was a little much though.

Yes the ratings for that game will suck.
Just look at every other time a Cinderella made the Final Four - the rating sucks.
And here I think of FSU as a wash woman Cinderella and Xavier as a debutante.
I remember rooting for the great John Chaney to beat the sh... it out of Calipari...
Based on the way some mid majors have played in the tournament I believe SOS is subjective.I would hate to be on the committee....tough choices to be made..
Should you have left out an FSU (.500 in conference) or Cuse for the only mid major #1 seed in the NIT...St. Mary's? Even if there is a 90 point separation in their SOS's.
Or Western Kentucky (4 seed NIT) who has made it to the NIT Final Four with Utah, Penn State, Miss State. But who knew then?
FSU and Cuse played well enough in the tourney to justify that decision, I think..IMHO

Maybe people weren't hallucinating when they complained that almost every referee call favored the Jordan-led Bulls?
Been saying that for decades! It is a self fulfilling prophecy. Plus mathematically it is over weighted in the RPI. You could probably justify half a dozen mid majors getting in who didn’t. St Mary’s is a he obvious one, Western Ky is tanother. BUt the committee is alway going to give the benefit of the doubt to the name over ability. And they can gin up the numbers to justify it, they don’t really have to actually. They’ve already cooked the books ahead of time with their pseudo scientific formulas.Based on the way some mid majors have played in the tournament I believe SOS is subjective.
