They have St Francis (PA) in the tourney as a 9 seed. Considering they are a 180 RPI team with 1 RPI top 100 win- and a 15-15 record, I dare say that's a typo.

You're shocked ESPN is down playing us and our teams? I guess losing to Nova hurt our chances. hahaha

*EDIT I just looked again and he replaced us with St. Francis (PA) so he just F'ed up and had them in instead of us.

They've corrected it and now have St. John's as a 9 seed in the South.

Note- that is before the Obekpa information coming out.

It'll be interesting if Tulsa makes it what changes they make to the RPI.


Agree that the Tulsa decision is an interesting topic. Heck, it's kept us talking for weeks.

But Dance card has them in? I thought you didn't like Dance Card. :D

It's remarkable that something that uses the old metric can be so accurate. But you can't argue it's success rate.

some time for the dance card website to go down!

Doesn't seem to have affected their seed.
