    Re: OS Selection Committee Convenes

    Are we all going to get together in a chat room of some kind tomorrow? Things will go quickly if we can do that.

    I'm available once I wake up. I have no plans other than to watch basketball tomorrow...and the DVR of the Australian Grand Prix.

      Chat room sounds good to me. Does anyone have an idea on the best place for a group chat?

        I know AIM has some kind of group chat. I haven't used AIM in a while so I don't vouch for its quality. I'm sure google has something, no idea how it works though.

          I'll check it out when I get home. If you think a team should be moved up or down. I think the best way is either make the motion and say what #. If others agree we'll move to that #. If others agree but don't think a team should be moved as high as the motion says, give the # you think and we'll take an average when the motion passes. Example: gondie says michigan at 4. Two of us agree but say we think 5 and 6. Then we'll take the average of 4 5 and 6 which is 5. I think that's best, I'm replying on my phone right now so sorry if I take long to respond

            I'm against changing any seeds until tomorrow. Michigan-Michigan State and Duke-Virginia are big games. Those outcomes may change my opinion of the last one seed.

              Skype group chat doesn't work bad if that's what we want to do. I probably won't get home until after 3 ET tomorrow, but could be signed in mobile if we're in a chat room starting about 1.

                So, Iowa is officially back on the consideration list, yes? We have 3 votes out of 5 now, since thurley wasn't one of the 3 previous votes.

                  Yeah I guess they are lol.so Iowa is eligible for the ballot tonight. For tomorrow, it may be a good thing for everyone to make a list ranking all teams we haven't ranked yet that will be in the field or are under consideration. So you can just go to the list during ballots to speed up things

                    I'm going to push back tonight's deadline to 1 am et. I know I won't be able to look at the ballots before then. The at large and 5 seed

                      Re: OS Selection Committee Convenes

                      Yeah, we should have our 68 teams pretty quick tomorrow because most of the games involve teams already in. Michigan, Michigan State, Duke, Virginia, Florida, Kentucky and VCU are already in. St. Joe's surely will be voted in during the balloting tonight, and the Sun Belt is a 1-bid league, so we know how many teams we need from the at-large pool, and we can get them in early and get to the ordering.

                            Some votes were missing but here are the results for the 5 seed consideration and at-large consideration:

                              St. Joe's, Stanford, Dayton and Xavier made the field.
                              5 seeds in order: Michigan State, Connecticut, New Mexico and Saint Louis.

                              We need to do a 6 seed consideration ballot: So rank your 8 best teams in the field left that are not VCU, Oklahoma, Ohio State or Kentucky as soon as possible.

                              We also need to do another at-large consideration ballot. Since we have 14 to 19 teams on the under consideration, only give me a top 6 teams for this. We have 5-at large spots left once the conference tournaments are over. Two teams are already on the next actual at-large ballot DO NOT VOTE FOR TENNESSEE OR IOWA ON THIS BALLOT. YOU CAN VOTE FOR BRIGHAM YOUNG OR NEBRASKA SINCE THEY DIDN'T MAKE IT IN THE FIELD ON 2 CONSECUTIVE BALLOTS. THEY GET RETURNED BACK TO THE ELIGIBLE LIST.

                              Email with the subject 6 seed consideration and put teams in all caps with no numbers next to them like this:

                              TEAM A
                              TEAM B
                              TEAM C

                              It will make it much quicker for me to copy and paste rather than download an attachment or have to re-enter the team name in all caps.

                              Thanks!

                              When can the bracket committee meet today?
