I don't get anything he says. He said miamis best shot at a one seed would have been if miami beat duke in the championship acc game. Why does Miami suffer because duke loses. Has to be the dumbest **** I have heard. If you win your regular season conference and also your conference tournament there is no reason why we should not be a 1 seed.

It's gonna be tough because if Kansas wins their conference title game they will almost certainly jump Duke. But if Miami wins, I don't know if we are able to jump Kansas, that's why if we beat Duke it would have looked better than beating UNC. Our best chance at a 1 seed is if Cuse wins tonight and we jump Louisville.
 
It means Miami gets Duke's #1 if they win tomorrow and Kansas loses. If Kansas wins, they get Duke's #1. If Miami and Kansas lose, Duke keeps the #1. Not sure it's right, but that's what he's saying.

We need the quality win over another top 10 team. Beating UNC will be nice, but it won't be as good of a win.
 
Didnt you say during yetserday's game against BC that Miami was going to lose their first round game in the NCAA's hurcanes? Talk about being the dumbest ***. Here was your post.:

This team blows they will be 1 and done in tournament

Call me an *******, but I kinda don't want a chance to be the 1st 1 seed to lose in the 1st round.


2 seed is fine by me.

Ok. You're an *******. :)

This team would smoke a 16 and will likely make short order of a 15. If you can play perimeter defense, which we can, those ****pile teams from small confs can't drain a dozen 3s or whatever to keep it close long enough to make you sweat.

This is a great point, and it explains why a Haith coached team will always be upset fodder.

Yep, explains why Missouri will get upset again in the first round.
 
They just brought up Miami's #1 seed chances on ESPN with the former senior NCAA committee exec or something like that. He alluded to the fact that Miami is playing for the ACC Title after winning the regular season, while Indiana won the regular season, and then lost in their tourney.

Bilas said Miami has a great case for a #1 seed, and everyone needs to stop talking about the GT loss, because Kansas lost to TCU. Phelps is basically sucking us off as usual. Jay Williams brought up that Kansas lost to TCU on the road, and Bilas shot him down and said forget about the worst, look at the best, and Miami has more impressive wins.
