VCU declared no contest, Oregon advances

[jimmythegreek]

I hope this is the only case where we see an advancement without a game taking place.

Fucking joke.

SOMEBODY SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN INDIANAPOLIS LIKE DUKE OR SOMEBODY.

DIDNT THEY PLAN FOR THIS??????

 

[IWishIWasAPro]

BRO. WTF?

They did plan for it, but it happened too late.

Imagine you are a player from VCU who had 2 big dance tickets canceled. I'm not sure about last year. Let's go with it. 2 tournaments. 0 games. And this time, they take it away from you hours before tip and you are stuck in Indiana, in a Brian Stelter hostage situation indefinitely. Locked in a hotel room until they let you go home.

Yet not a single player or coach has gone rogue. They are all taking it. Pretending that all this is normal and fine.

 

[Dell Dude]

We don't even have the name(s) of the supposed positive tests. Nobody really got sick. It is an anonymous, mysterious positive.

 

[Dell Dude]

Some player should quit on the spot and have his parents or agent buy him an airline ticket home.

More: VCU has no indication when it will be allowed to leave. Everyone quarantining in their rooms. NCAA is waiting to figure out next steps.

Staff met w/ players in hotel hallway and broke the news.

"Some were more emotional than others. Some guys, it hadn’t hit them fully."

The forever term effect of this insanity is we will view each other as virus carriers. Will never be the same. Permanent mindset for a lot of people. Which in a way is good. Because these sports teams and leagues are going to pay the price when they can no longer fill stadiums and arenas. They did that to themselves. The same people they terrified for life will never go to another game for life. Enjoy what you reeped, motherfuckers.

oregon sucks, a good fade, even with their fake genius coach

 

[Dell Dude]

College at least there is an excuse. The schools and NCAA hold the Samantha Power. Pros, nothing stopping a player from saying no to testing and all the other Soviet style forced mitigation. There is nobody willing to stand up to these communists? Go to court when they suspend you without pay or try to void your contract. All of this stuff is unlawful. Let the courts sort it out. At least if you lose, you expose howid deep the corruption goes. Trump judges probably rule for the league.

 

[Dell Dude]

I can't believe these NBA mobiles are putting up with it. Demand owners be called governors then bend over and point the asshole for their daily covid shot.

 

[Dell Dude]

VCU players locked down in a shit hotel until for the duration of the tournament. Textbook cruel and unusual.

I'm fine with TV only leagues. The players can return to selling vacuum cleaners during the off season.

The also-eligible list was only good until Tuesday of tournament week or within 48 hours of the announcement of the 68-team field.

Louisville was first in line to gain a bid.
