Ill be the first to admit that Im not the biggest college basketball fan.
However, Im fortunate enough to work alongside some of the sharpest minds in college basketball.
Everyone knows he doesnt really deserve to be there.
Think about it: the brides brother wasnt in the trenches with the boys.
He didnt earn his spot through blood, sweat, and tears.
He got in purely because of his namebecause of the unavoidable obligation that comes with it.
And thats exactly how UNC found itself in the tournament this year.
Their resume simply wasnt strong enough.
The frustrating part isnt just that they got inits what their inclusion cost other, more deserving teams.
Thats what makes this situation so maddening.
The teams that earn their spots should be the ones who get in.
But sometimes, politics, reputation, and favoritism tip the scales.
