... going anywhere.

They deserved it and we didn't. In the words of Forrest Gump "It happens"...

The way their football program got hosed, at least it was a small bright spot for them.

Memphis could've and should've easily won the auto qualifier as well.

As the famous poet OG MACO once said, the other teams in this league really ain't impressing me...

.....which is pretty much what was said about Memphis in the post-2005 C-USA, after the exodus of Cincinnati, Louisville, Marquette.....

Congrats to UAB. They absolutely earned it.

that's what I was referring to. I'm just using the same narrative some have been using.

Well, this year anyway. Aren't they getting ejected for not having football?

Walk softly and carry a big check.

Trolling my a$$. I been around this board for a long time. Been a Tiger fan for OVER 50 f'n years.

What are y'all trying to price by sharing these types of posts?

I would get it if these teams earned at large bids, but they win their tournaments.

Longevity has nothing to do with trolling.

I think reality set in for most of us years ago. It's just been a slow fade to what all of us were warning of.

Yes.

THIS year that is the case.

Not last year. Or the year before. Or the year before. Or the year before. Probably not next year, or the year after or the year after.

Let that sink in...although if you had been awake the last half decade you already knew that. Five years from now, after four straight NCAA tourneys, maybe a Final Four run or two, if Memphis misses the tourney again, you can acknowledge that Memphis was out but TN Tech made it.

Nice.

Greg Garber just tweeted that he and Coach Pastner stayed up all night watching Patch Adams.

I'll bet that was insightful, videographers have to know about camera angles.

F-him mapdude, dudes calling card is name calling (along with some others), just ignore his feeble @ss. If you don't agree with him, along with some others on this board, you're a troll, bully, plastic fan or whatever the hell else he (they) can come up with just because you don't have your nose stuck up Pastners @ss.
