we have to win the tournament to get there.

I tend to agree with you.  The only scenario I can see getting an at large bid is losing in the CUSA Championship Game, finishing with a record around 25-6 (only two more losses) and still keeping our Net ranking where it is now or a little higher.

We have no shot at an At-Large bid with 2 more losses. Even 1 loss might keep us out...

Mountain West with four?  Give me a break...I have seen some of their train wreck teams play.

MWC is a 🐷 pigment of their own vivid imagination, but they will probably get an additional invite (NIT?)  because of their self-promotion—an art form Judy of CUSA never mastered).

Cbs has us as a 12 facing Iowa state. They also have their total bracketology breakdown and we are their second highest ranked 12. Their lowest ranked 11? Miami. Too bad the team couldn't pull out the win. We'd be an 11 and maybe on the way to a 10 seed.

Buffalo lose affects us a whole lot more than the Miami lose. Like in the NET had to drop us by now 10-13 teams down.

 

Also all this is based on us winning the conference and projecting we win all remain games except at UAB. Hopefully we win out either way.

Yeah, clearly we have to win c-usa to make it in. Looking at the CBS bracket more closely, I actually like staying at 12 more than moving up to 11 or 10. The 4/13 match-ups are more favorable IMO if we are to win our first round game.

I think it would be nice to get to a 10 line and play in the Fort Worth Regional against Miami again.

I may be looking at it wrong but Ft Worth isn't hosting a 10 seed match-up. I wouldn't mind a rematch against Miami, though.

Now, if we can somehow win out while others ahead of us stumble down the stretch and sneak into a 9, we could play in Ft Worth. Win that 8/9 match-up and, per CBS, we would play Kansas, again, in Ft Worth. I think that would be awesome. Going to need a lot of people ahead of us to lose a few games. As always, our guys just need take care of business and see where the chips fall.

For what it's worth, if we start seeing predictions of North Texas being an 11 seed or better, then those prognosticators are placing us in the conversation for an at-large bid.

      Doesn't seem new, but unlimited transfers

      Tim Pernetti's (new AAC Commissioner) remarks regarding exploring more corporate involvement seems interesting and innovative, sort of. Getting some heavy-hitter businesses on board with their big advertising/public-relations budgets. They get to splash their logos all over the AAC venues, ceremonies, uniforms, etc in exchange for some NIL type moola. I don't know, it all just feels weird and uncomfortable to this old fat guy.

      We have complained for years about being left in the dark. The Mean Green Club was promised quarterly meetings that never took place, now there is little to no coverage of the spring practices, player movement is constant so the days of watching a last second scholarship player developing in to a Hall of Fame performer are long gone ala Johnny Quinn, there is little to no fan engagement, etc... It just keeps getting worse and without a push to really involve the fans, I foresee a bleak future. They, the AD, has to create excitement around the team/program or Apogee will just become a waste of money, the new basketball arena will never happen and future adds like baseball will just be an idea that came too late. The days of the G5's are on their way out. It will be whittled down to the top 40 or 50 programs as D1. We might as well go back to our D1AA days and play at the FCS level. I am just about done with sports from a financial commitment position. The greed has ruined it for me. Their is zero loyalty towards the program by the players. It is all about them and how much money they can cram in their pockets and it appears our basketball coach encourages the lack of loyalty. I will watch on television, but that's about it, much like pro sports have become. I have no interest in attending a Cowboys' game live once the prices became ridiculous, same with the Mav's and Rangers' in that stupid new ballpark that was a waste of money. I had arrived at a point where I was only willing to invest in watching North Texas live, but the current situation has ruined that as well. The future of all of college sports is a disaster if some type of control isn't put in place. It is ridiculous and very sad. Guess I will end up spending my money on golf, fine food and drink, drugs, etc. and become a more interesting person.

      SB at Memphis (4/19-21/24)

      Opportunity to beat up on one of the worst teams in the country in Memphis (5-34, 1-17). Really can't let them steal one like UTSA did a few weeks ago. This could help solidify a top two seed (top two seeds would only need to win two games in the conference tournament to win the title) if Tulsa takes 2 of 3 from Charlotte this weekend.
