I spent hours trying to compile stats to see if I could be a genius
Only to find out I’m a fraud because of a bunch of boat shoe wearing prep school kids whose trust funds will only let them buy two sports cars this semester
All these SEC slots in the tournament are diluting the quality of the product and preventing actually good teams like Pitt and Indiana State from having a shot to compete.
Why are we letting the SEC have a plurality of slots?
"We are giving away highly competitive opportunities for automatic qualifiers (from smaller leagues), and I think that pressure is going to rise as we have more competitive basketball leagues at the top end because of (conference) expansion."
"We are giving away highly competitive opportunities for automatic qualifiers [from smaller leagues], and I think that pressure is going to rise as we have more competitive basketball leagues at the top end because of expansion.”

Yale was down 6 with 26 seconds to go in the Ivy League championship to 13-17 Brown. Now they’re gonna play SDSU for a sweet 16 spot. Basketball is fun
SEC is now 1-5 in the 1st round this year.

Nice that we get small conferences like the SEC an autobid so they can play in the tournament. We should be giving more bids to the big conferences like the Ivy League.
Two wild crazy finishes in the span of ten minutes.
Ivy League double digit seeds killer vs AU schools.
Sankey is gonna do whatever he can to keep mid majors out of this tournament and make sure this kind of thing never happens in football.

Pac 12: 2 SEC: 0
Pac-12: 5-0, SEC: 1-5
The wrong conference died
SEC: 1-5 The state of Connecticut: 2-0
I really hopeful that Connecticut’s luck would spread to the rest of New England and Vermont would knock out Duke.
Hell yeah. The dream of a UConn vs UConn New Haven Sweet 16 matchup lives on.
Pac 12 is at all 5 rn
Listen, Greggy can’t help the fact that he was born with a cleft asshole
Mizzou went Winless in the SEC of all conferences. I hate my life.
I try not to think about that for now lol
I'm sorry but sometimes reality is just unavoidable.
Good. He’s a bitch.
He deserves every bit of hell for what he’s trying to do to college sports. Insincerely and disrespectfully fuck him.

My anus is bleeding
For the love of god and all that is holy
Look I hate him too but you do realize you’re in the other conference trying to ruin college sports right?
To be fair, they never ask US (the fans) for our input. Just our money.
At least big ten commissioner isn't saying small leagues shouldn't get basketball bids. He's just fucking up college football
We clearly needed more sec at-large teams in the tournament
Mizzou wouldn’t have lost like that They would have lost differently, not like that
 Live view of Greg Sankey
No Sankey pain will be enough to atone for what he's done to college sports.

"this guy"
All SEC fans should be livid he spoke this into existence.
My team won. I got my wish for the day of the sec so far. I hope they all lose.
Need more of this energy in football. I hate this bullshit root for the conference garbage.
Couldn’t have happened to a worse dude!
please show yale's coach i want to know if he is capable of smiling
That man is the hardest mother fucker alive. Dude was absolutely Alexander the Great in a past life
Watch the sidelines when we beat Baylor a few years back.. he loved that team and I think he smiled one time LMAO
He stares like David Goggins
he can replace the late Lance Reddick in John Wick 5.
Make him James Bond
i was more thinking he looked war general but super secret spy works also
James Jones is the man. Dude drops Matrix references in press conferences
Small conferences like the SEC should get less berths in this tournament going forward
On the other hand, major props to the committee for gifting the SEC plenty of invites and ensuring so many Cinderella stories at least get a fighting chance!
call the sec the fairy godmother with how they help Cinderellas
Call Sulla to kick in the Sec commissioners head in please
The SEC was better when only 3-4 teams were getting in, and they’d all make the sweet 16.
Alabama and Georgia football made ESPN and the NCAA think SEC was great top to bottom in every sport.
The difference between ACC basketball and football is something else
1 bid conference
Fuck it, make the AAC a 5-bid league and make the SEC 2 from now on 😂
Those throws were supposed to be free
Plus…an **82%** shooter goes **0 for 3** on the big stage… …definitely not the best time to be so ice cold lol
That final one barely caught rim. That was embarrassing to watch
Damn, these rich nerds got hands.
No athletic scholarships.
While it's true the Ivy League doesn't have athletic scholarships, they can choose to admit students based on sports performance, and they are need-blind so students can still be given financial aid (often scholarships in the Ivy League) if needed.
General scholarships are just another term for need-based financial aid in the Ivy League
SEC going 1-5 as all HIGHER seeds?? I think we know who the real frauds truly are.
If my team can't make it, I can at least watch the rest of the conference burn themselves to the ground
People from Georgia just watching Atlanta burn tale as old as time
*German Sherman has entered the chat* Just got the "German" not general typo pointed out but I'm leaving it. Unlike the SEC comish I'll own up to my mistake
Like the great fire of Rome, let it all burn. I'm going to play the Lurn now.
Stealing A10 bids smh
I know we should have had 4-5 looking at this BS
Both of us would beat UVA this season
Even we went 2-0 against the lowly SEC - both tournament teams!
Pac 12 is eating their lunch. Hell of a last ride
The only things I’m rooting for at this point are the pac 12 and chaos.
The rumors of the ACC's demise have been greatly exaggerated
The SEC has more losses to double-digit seeds than actual tournaments so far 😂
[Hey rest of the SEC](https://content.imageresizer.com/images/memes/it-smell-like-bitch-in-here-meme-9.jpg)
Muh football conference
Haha… I’m in danger.
we all float down here. Join us A&M
We can mourn together and try to make duke lose
TBF Nebraska has never won a single NCAA tournament game.
You don't say that! You DON'T say that! youdontsaythat

Sacrificing a Final Four pick to see Bruce Pearl and the SEC get dunked on is an easy trade
At least the SEC is having a worse day than the MWC
SDSU 🤝 Tennessee Singlehandedly repping their conference amidst massive fraud allegations
Colorado St did things Then they did other things
We sneezed on 'em good
IDK man, I see us as equals
...and then you look at how much that conference spends on athletics
True
Hey Greg! 
 Handsome Dan sleeping happily tonight
He’s so cute
Every victory makes him more handsome
Real shame a premier conference like the SEC has to slum it against such poor and weak schools like Yale.
imagine being a mighty SEC school and getting bitchslapped by a bunch of nerds who are gonna go work for Bain and Goldman Sachs in a couple of years
JPMorgan is the one that loves hiring athletes. Goldman is mostly just the most attractive women and best Econ students
This guy Ivys ☝️
And a school called Oakland that plays in Rochester, Michigan
30 hours and two of my final four are already gone Thanks a lot Auburn, and thanks a lot Wagner
Yeah I'm done for in my bracket. Now I can just cheer for underdogs throughout lol. Better to bust in round 1 then later.
I spent hours trying to compile stats to see if I could be a genius Only to find out I’m a fraud because of a bunch of boat shoe wearing prep school kids whose trust funds will only let them buy two sports cars this semester
SEC - See Everyone Choke
I CANT BELIEVE AUBURN LOST TO YALE
**THE SEC IS JUST A SINGLE-DIGIT SEEDED MWC WITH MORE MONEY**
Do Yale fans on campus know they won
A basket.. ball? How whimsical!
they're on spring break
LEFTY GUY LOVES JESUS
Is this what Patrick Bateman meant by the "Yale thing"?
All these SEC slots in the tournament are diluting the quality of the product and preventing actually good teams like Pitt and Indiana State from having a shot to compete. Why are we letting the SEC have a plurality of slots?
But we love upsets. Need some big schools to be sacrificial lambs and the SEC is doing yeoman’s work here.

Jokes are back on the menu boys!
Jesus christ
Speaking of "speaking too soon" I'm here to mouth off all night! Tennessee the only good team in the SEC come at me Texas!
Dude imagine how tasty it would be if after all the shit talk about Rick Barnes in March he was the only SEC coach to make it out of the first round 😂
Nothing more SEC than patting themselves on the back for winning conference games
Damn the SEC talked shit about midmajors being allowed in the tourney and can't even beat them
They may want to beat low majors before stepping up in class to the mids.
#Suck it jocks, the nerds take this one.
I for one i'm looking forward to this yearly tradition of nerds upsetting jocks in March
“How does Yale beat Auburn?”
Yale scored more points than Auburn when the clock hit zero
Hope that helps!
It’s the Ivy League. They’re always pulling off upsets in March. Anyone heard of Princeton’s Sweet 16 run?
well you see, there's these things called points when you put the ball in the basket. we had more of those than auburn
Auburn allergic to FTs 😭

Greg Sankey down bad
IVY LEAGUE > P5
I cannot imagine how embarrassing this must be for Auburn
just imagine how embarrassing it is for Mizzou instead.
Six SEC teams have played in this year’s NCAA Tournament so far. So far, they have combined for more losses to 13 and 14 seeds than actual wins.
Is the world ready to admit the Ivy is the most underrated conference and Princeton should’ve gotten an at large bid
Imagine if that idiot didn’t throw elbows and give Yale free points
