It is a lot of fun to get trolled by the official NCAA twitter account. /s
Pretty much why I posted this. Shows the “respect” we currently get.

Getting trolled by the NCAA is bad and sad, and to add insult to injury, the widely seen video also revealed there are fewer fans at Reckling than at many Little League games.

I still dont understand the argument in the first place. I mean unless we are all lawyers arguing judicial precedence, where does anyone apply this logic anywhere else?
Yes I made 3 stupid decisions last night buying 10k worth of bottle service so tonight I can go binge shopping since I made a unrelated dumb decision previously?
Other that Rice Athletics I have never seen arguments like this made. The sunk cost fallacy doesnt seem to register at Rice.

In the MLB between 1957 and the present no home team has ever blown a game with a 4 or more run lead in top of 9th with nobody on base and two outs. At least that is what a win expectation tool returned.

Maybe the Owl bullpen should try this approach?
