I can remember years ago when year after year WT should have hosted the women's regional, but we ALWAYS had to travel to Emporia. It was completely a subjective choice by a small committee. I was plenty butt hurt. Today, the hosting criteria is much more data based......d2 wins, in region wins, SOS, etc.

Going to Durango was no penalty for me. My sister lives in Farmington and I have a niece and nephew who live in Durango that I haven't seen in quite a while. I was looking forward to it.Last edited by BuffaloChip; 03-07-2023, 09:34 AM.

Hey, Mountainmagic, I was reading your tweets. I had a really, really good belly laugh when you said poor li'l ole FLC worked so hard as compared to a rich Texas school who hands players "duffel bags full of cash." hahahaha! I've been around for 50 years watching WT basketball, traveling all over the country, going to practice, years ago traveling with the team, being a booster and consistent $ contributor to our programs......and if there were duffel bags of cash being handed out to our players, I'd know about it. hahaha!
We lost a D2 AA guard, Qua Grant, this year because we didn't have duffel bags full of cash. 3 years at WT with a natty final game against NWM, 1 year at Wichita State, and he had a year left. WT badly wanted him back. We couldn't put any kind of NIL money together for him and he followed the NIL money to Sam Houston where he's absolutely tearing up the WAC. Duffel bags full of cash. hahaha!
You don't know what you're talking about.

They lost 3 of those 4 games by a combined 5 points.
Ft. Lewis's non conference schedule looks riddled with cupcakes with the exception of Angelo State.
Flip the schedules and WT more than likely finishes with 3 losses or less.
Edit: WT has played 6 teams that made the D2 NCAA tournament.Last edited by Buffalo/Islander Alum; 03-07-2023, 10:54 AM.

Do you think the difficulty of getting to Durango and the associated cost had something to do with the committee choosing Amarillo over the 4 Corners? Would cost factor into the decision?
this is not something I normally care about but when I saw the nonsense on Twitter, it made me take a closer look.
I went to Ink’s site, and quite frankly, I think it’s the criteria that allowed West Texas to host.
There is even more criteria that Ink’s site does not display that favors West Texas as well.
