A better schedule (and wins) will at least give us a fighting chance. We've done it before. This season's schedule was pathetic.

We could at least have a conversation about whether or not MTSU should have gotten a bid.

I guess we could technically have a conversation about ODU being at-large worthy, but it would be a short one.

MTSU was good enough to get snubbed. I'd settle for that right now.

Its pretty clear that until the committee changes their mindset, there is nothing we can do to get in the tourney without winning the tourney. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't MTSU have something like a top 10 non conference strength of schedule? And the committee didn't even put them in the first 4 out and they got a 3 see in the NIT...there were nowhere close to the NCAA tourney despite playing Belmont, Auburn, USC, Miami, Murray State, FGC, Vadny, Ole Miss, Princeton.

The at large stuff is not even my concern. I know the reality of what happens with the committee and P5 and G5. I want the games for exposure for recruits, as well as getting to play on a big stage. For me, it has little to do with the at large conversation, but more about the experience of playing in big time games.
