I have learned to not act on my initial feelings when I am disappointed by some situation. Last evening going into the selection program I still believed the Hall would get a bid.Early on I recognized that the number of bid stealers was not favoring the Hall's selection. I was bummed out but took some solace in the reality that Sha had gone way beyond my initial prognosis for the year. To win thirteen games with literally no bench was nothing short of miraculous. The seniors certainly were blown out of some games, but what five players playing enormous minutes could have achieved a thirteen and seven record in the second toughest league?
This morning I am more than a little ticked off by the reality of some of the teams that were selected over the Hall.It seems the committee used selective measures to pick Michigan State,Virginia and Dayton.They gerrymandered facts that supported their desires and did not see the hypocrisy of ignoring long standing metrics. I feel for Sha and the team who deserved their time in the sunlight, and hope that we loyalists give the team the necessary financial support to make the future bright, In the interim, I am proud of the team voting to play in the NIT ,
Go Pirates.
