Strength of MVC

was watching a game on the Big Ten network a couple nights ago and the announcers were still saying Indiana should get an at-large bid!
They are NOT even above .500 and have a 5-12 league record with a NET about 60...
OMG - the Big Ten people absolutely have to get 8 or 9 of their teams in or they will have a stroke..

I agree with you Chibearsfan10125 that the "one and done and transfer culture" is a very key reason all mid-majors are not able to recruit better players as well as the excessive budget these power conference schools athletic departments have at their disposal compared to the mid-major schools.

Some of the behind the scenes key reasons that made last year's Loyola Cinderella run so special. A small school, small budget, no highly recruited players winning against all odds. Once the Sweet 16, or Elite 8, or Final 4 are made up of nothing more than Power 5 conference teams - I quit watching the NCAA tournament. Ho - Hum - another Duke victory with their 287 lb 6'7" freshman who is going to make millions in the NBA. FYI - I don't even watch the NBA.

I agree but don't agree. I think the NCAA is purposely stacking the deck against the mid-majors in favor of the bigger schools. All these mid-major schools need to stand up and say enough is enough
