NCAA seeds all about $$

Here's Mick Cronin complaining about how NCAA seeding is all about money and how Maui won't invite us back because we didn't draw enough fans. Sometimes I just wish this guy would shut up and stop whining every chance he gets.

You don't want to worry about being a 5,6,7,8,9 or 10 then win enough to be a 2 or a 3. Don't coach your team to a 49 point performance against UCF when you're talented enough that you should be beating them by 20. Don't load up your schedule with teams ranked so low in the RPI that playing them actually hurts our reputation. When you get a chance to beat a mediocre team like Rhode Island on a neutral court win the game so you get the chance to play Duke.

You want to get invited back to Maui? Win enough that people actually care and maybe you will. Until then STFU and coach us to some big time success.

Just heard the comments on the Houston preview video. Mick is so annoying sometimes. He talks about how he doesn't pay attention to stuff but then goes into details to whine about something the way many on here would. Such a joke. #DumpMick

I didn't even think this was news. Hasnt the commitee admitted to setting up interesting match-ups? I thought that was all he was saying

I always did think it was weird we didn't go back to the Maui. They take teams that are terrible and we had a good showing last time we were there. Winning could fix that tho. We start winning people will want us more

Love his honesty and candor. All anyone has to do is look at the networks and the creation of the P5 conferences to know it's not about the student athletes. The Hipocracy of the NCAA has no bounds. It's all about the money.

I don't know how anyone would debate that. Of course it's all for the money.

What he is saying is winning is only part of the equation. If your fan base doesn't fill up the hotels and make Money for the local economy you ain't getting invited.

Anyone wanting to insult our coach will find fault in anything he says.

Yeah nothing's wrong with Mick stating obvious facts. I have watched Dayton play an actual home game in the tournament.
