6 Quad 1 Wins Yet Snubbed: West Virginia’s NCAA Tournament Omission Sparks Investigation

West Virginia, with a 19-13 record, was left out of the NCAA men’s tournament despite securing six Quad 1 wins. The Mountaineers’ season was impacted by the absence of Tucker DeVries, who averaged 14.9 points and 4.9 rebounds in his eight starts before undergoing surgery for an upper-body injury. North Carolina, finishing with a 22-13 record and a 1-12 mark against Quad 1 teams, made the tournament as an 11-seed, largely due to an 8-0 record against Quad 2 teams. West Virginia Governor Patrick Morrisey has called for an investigation into the selection process, emphasizing the need for transparency and fairness. The NCAA selection committee, chaired by North Carolina’s athletic director Bubba Cunningham, acknowledged the difficulty in their decision, noting DeVries’ injury as a factor. West Virginia Attorney General JB McCuskey seeks detailed criteria from the NCAA to guide future team preparations.

Enough of this last four in, first four out bullshit. WVU has more Quad 1 wins (6) than the Last 4 in combined. And don’t get started with UNC Let these 8 teams play each other to be the Last 4 in.

Well wonder why #Wvu missed out they put a 1-12 in quad 1 wins in over a West Virginia that was 6 quad one wins. Absolutely horrific.. West Virginia Men’s team shafted because we had a North Carolina AD.. Horrible.. disgusting. #Wvuhoops #snubbed

Quick thoughts: West Virginia was the biggest snub. 6 Quad 1 wins, neutral court wins over Gonzaga and Arizona and a win at Kansas. Memphis getting a 5 seed was very generous. UCLA got shitted on with a 7 seed. St. John’s being sent out West was surprising.

Wow WVU being left out is a crime. SIX Quad 1 wins with teams like UNC and San Diego State making it over them?! Someone investigate this. Criminal.
