IMHO, the NCAA knows it has a "perception of fairness" problem and hence this attempt to provide some added hocus-pocus to their calculations to justify the inclusion of up to nine teams from Power 5 Conferences. This fig leaf is not the answer, however. Given that all the Conferences now have their own tournaments at the end of each season that also rake in millions of greenbacks, the NCAA should eliminate all but the top three to five teams from consideration for the Big Dance from any and all Conferences. This is the only way, IMHO, to keep the Big Boyz honest...or as honest as they could be given the amount of money involved. Three Card Monte shysters have nothing on the NCAA and it's "Committee". So we know it ain't gonna happen in our lifetimes.
