The subtext of so much of the NCAA selection committee's questionable snubs, seedings, & placements of Big East teams over the past several years is the P4 effort to undermine the BE's competitive advantage in using most of their House money on basketball. @BIGEASTMBB

"The Big East only got three teams in but their top two teams are in the same region.. That never happens and I was a little bit surprised by that.. I was also surprised that St John's was a five seed after what they've done" ~ Coach K #PMSLive

@OdjHoops Overtime victories apparently no longer count in the win column.

@SethDavisHoops Any issues with putting the Big East's top 2 teams in the same region? It's always something to ding the BE.

Seeing outrage in some nyc media quarters over St. John's getting a 5 seed. I thought they could sneak onto the 4 line but keep in mind their best noncon win was over Baylor on a neutral court. They went 2-1 vs UConn but Big East was meh and their predictive metrics were in the 16/17 range. So it aligns pretty well with a 5 seed. I expected a 4 but would have been shocked at a 3. A quibble, perhaps, but hardly cause for outrage. Though I love the action!

Just to confirm I am understanding things here…Saint John’s was ranked #13 in the country, then ran through the entire Big East Tournament dominating everyone along the way, including a beatdown of #6 UCONN, and they are now seeded as a team that is somewhere between 17-20???

@HoopsWeiss The P4 conferences have it out for the Big East when it comes to selection time. If it's not stiffing our deserving teams, it's other things. This year, they put the BE top 2 teams into the same bracket. The only conference they did this to near as I can tell.

when evaluating the Big East, hope the committee realizes Jay Wright and Danny Hurley have combined to win four national championships since 2016. The Big Ten has not hung a banner since 2000. when I see st. john's as a 5 after winning the BE regular season and the BET, don't tell me the power conferences don't have enormous influence over seeding.

@HoopsWeiss And we can go back to not having to worry about losing to DePaul. Big relief.

now that the dust has settled on Villanova's unexpected Big East tournament loss to Georgetown, we can still say the Cats are lucky to have Kevin Willard as their coach. 24 wins and a trip to the dance. not bad for starters.
