I said they weren’t relevant. Do you think they would have more then 3 wins in the Big12 this year? I don’t. That’s the definition of a doormat
So 13/14 teams in the Big10 are a doormat

This year probably 11/12 teams if they played in the big 12 for sure.So 13/14 teams in the Big10 are a doormat
Without Jay Wright they are. They are 7th in the big east with no recruiting talent coming in, their class is ranked 120th
Hahaha their isn’t a right answer for your Rutgers comparison. Does anyone actually think Rutgers is good at basketball or have they just lucked their way into the dance during a couple down years for the conference? And the other teams you mentioned are no longer relevant so maybe they improved joining the big east but are now no longer part of the narrative.
Very smart gambling move. The big ten has been very bad the past 3 seasons.Rutgers was in the Big East 18 years and had 0 winning conference records. They're looking at their 3rd in 4 years now. I mean I knew the B10 was bad, but I didn't realize it was that terrible.
Kinda kidding...I know how bad it is, that's why I clean up gambling fading B10 teams every NCAA tournament.
Cinci hasn’t been relevant in a long time, neither has BYU. Just because someone once was great doesn’t mean they will be again. Just look at Syracuse, Georgetown, Pitt, etc in basketball. Also we have yet to see a school change conferences and improve.
I guess I have a different definition of relevant. Out of those 9 appearances they made it out of the first weekend once. Anyone can make the tournament but actually doing something in it is what matters, just look at Iowa.That's a little harsh. Cincy has made the tourney 9 times since 2010. BYU has 6 tourney appearances since 2010.
Cincy is a middle of the pack team in the Big 12 moving forward. BYU is likely behind them but not some scrub.
Iowa fans tell us it’s better to win the NIT than make the NCAA and lose. So they aren’t normal.I guess I have a different definition of relevant.

Well those fans awe idiots but I’m sure people already knew thatIowa fans tell us it’s better to win the NIT than make the NCAA and lose. So they aren’t normal.

Or it means you got lucky in your conference tournament, or you played in a super easy conference. Its still 68 teams getting in, that 19% just looks better because almost every D1 school can afford to run a basketball program.Clearly.
Making the tourney means you're in the top 19% of college basketball. That seems relevant to me.
I'd also put Xavier up as wellTCU has improved radically by joining the #1 basketball conference for the past decade. Stepped up from probably 8th best conference to #1 and to the point you can call them a good program with a great coach.
They should have been a 5-6 seed last year (committee finally starting to realize Big 12 is usually 90% deep) and gave #1 Arizona all they could handle in OT, way underseeded.
They'd probably be winning any other conference in the nation and are one game back in top conference at half way point.
Nebraska was the worst major conference program in NCAA history and continues to be after changing conferences. I think it's more about them than the Big Ten or Big 12.
Rollie Massimino says "hi".Without Jay Wright they are. They are 7th in the big east with no recruiting talent coming in, their class is ranked 120th

I think its way too soon to slap that label on what was just a perrinial late weekend tournament team. I think Neptune sucks and wont last long but 1 bad season doesnt undo everything Nova has beenWithout Jay Wright they are. They are 7th in the big east with no recruiting talent coming in, their class is ranked 120th
Yes, but very, very poorly.Does DePaul still play basketball?
Capture the Chicago market and whatnot
I'd also put Xavier up as well
It doesn’t undo it all for sure. But when you replace a coach like Wright with the current guy you are going to have a problem if it goes on for a couple years. Just look at how irrelevant Georgetown is.I think its way too soon to slap that label on what was just a perrinial late weekend tournament team.

Yes, but very, very poorly.
