FLOYD-C-USA --Only as good as its bottom teams
Tim Floyd quotes:

"...our bottom teams...have to be instructed by administrations that they don't have to go out and play guaranteed games."

"You can't expect RPI's across the board to be good when your bottom six or seven teams are going out and paying for their own programs."

"They don't have to go on the road and be 1-5 in non-conference play and play teams they have got no chance of beating."

{source:twitter.com/zach_greenwell (WKU beat writer)}

I have to agree.Seems as though some teams at the bottom are using numerous money games(3 or 4) to PAY for their basketball program.They should schedule peer comparable H-H's.

The conference must change what it's doing or things will never get much better!! IMHO.

The bottom teams are dragging down the league!We can only get multiple bids by shoring up the lower teams.They don't seem to realize that THEY get a share of the $$ if we get multiple bids.

Can't disagree. Hopefully, CUSA is turning a corner in basketball towards multiple bids and respectability.

I would add that teams on top need to do their part and schedule appropriately (i.e. stronger) to position themselves and the conference for at-large bids.

CUSA should/has potential to be a 2-3 bid league IMO.

Again, scheduling top 50 teams isn't the issue for the bottom teams. You can go out and schedule Duke, Kentucky, Arizona, Kansas, Michigan State, etc., and while maybe it makes you a better team, it does very little for the conference's RPI. The biggest slice of the RPI is your opponent's record. The bottom teams need to schedule winnable games and actually win them.

Top 50 RPI scheduling is an issue for the upper level teams, who need to schedule them and win.

It sounds to me like Floyd is echoing what Judy MacLeod said the other day when she became CUSA Commissioner. Both of them are talking sense. I hope she backs up what she is saying with actions.

Agreed, WKU's AD also made comments about BB scheduling. Hopefully this is a sign she's making the changes necessary that are within her power to change. CUSA schools aren't going to become a better TV draw overnight or because there's a man at the negotiating table. Scheduling is something schools can control that will impact the overall profile of the conference.

Gotta disagree with you here. I've seen a long list of Texas women (Ann Richards as Governor, Annise Parker as Mayor of Houston, and Kay Bailey Hutchison as Senator, for starters) excel in traditionally male jobs.

Cusa with 3 bids? If love to see that. Dreaming. When teams with rpi in the low to mid 40s from cusa dont make it, we will have a hrd time getting more than 1

RE: FLOYD-C-USA --Only as good as its bottom teams
Well, as a Charlotte fan, it seems my team is picked to be one of those bottom teams this season but that is an abnormality and not the norm so I can agree with Floyd's thinking. The top of the league needs to play each other twice a season and no more D2 games, etc. I seen nothing wrong with a woman commish as long as she can get the job done.

And why would that be? Because she's a female commissioner? Shame on you if that's what you think Stink. The Tulsa fans have even made note of the good she did for their program. But hey, let's just make sure we knock our commissioner before she even gets started on doing anything.

Yep, just what I thought... Shame on your stink. First for the profanity, and then secondly... "She's a girl!!! She's going to give us cooties!!!"

Martha was incompetent.. we USM fans knew that when we heard all the crap that was going on under her administration.

Again, look at what the Tulsa fans say about our commissioner before you go off iwth the "Oh Noez! It's a Girl!"
