The controversy revolves around NCAA Tournament Selection Committee each year, since one or two teams are discussed on whether they deserve the opportunity of a career for the national title or not.

After “Domingo Selection”, the North Carolina Tar Heels They have been the hot controversial issue as university basketball fans dissect the official group.

But not everyone was surprised to see the Tar Heels among the 68 teams that entered.

The legend of university basketball Jalen Rose, part of the famous “Fab Five” 1991 Michigan Wolverines squadHe told Fox News Digital why North Carolina’s offer does not surprise him at all.

“They deserve to get money and nostalgia,” Rose said, while also discussed his association with Fanatics Sportsbook during this year Mature of March. “People know how the game works. From the beginning of the times, look where the teams play in parentheses. Duke and Carolina usually play in their own backyard, and it is not only so that they can have the advantage of the domestic court, which clearly gives them. It also allows the NCAA, or whoever the ruling bodies, to earn more money and sell more tickets.”

The NCCA NCCA tournament offer leads to the reaction of social networks: “How did this happen?”

While Rose points out the strong brand that UNC has, he also recognized another main factor that led to the controversy: the Atlético de Tar Heels director Bubba Cunningham, is the president of the Selection Committee.

While Cunningham said he was not in the room for the UNC’s decision, Vice President Keith Gill was postponed to explain how the Tar Heels entered.

Gill replied: “Our policies require the announcement of any school to retire and really abandon the space for those discussions. And they are not allowed to participate in any vote too … we voted in four teams in the field on Saturday night, and we had a contingency vote.

“The contingency vote, that was the last team in the field. And it was based on Memphis-Uab. If Memphis won that game, then that was going to free a place in the tournament and that was going to be North Carolina.”

Anyway, Rose explained how “skeptic” has always been with the way in which these committees choose in university sports.

“I have been skeptical about how things have happened with NCAA since the beginning of time,” he admitted. “How do you get (Cunningham) in that position, and at some point, this does not become a contradiction? That happens at many different levels if that is the point. Then, of course, if you have to greet the flag for a school to enter the NCAA tournament, there is something in the baseball they use called, ‘tie goes to the corridor’. That is what is going to happen when it is in position.

“I don’t say that I like it. I am saying that is what it is. The coaches know what it is. Schools know what it is. Media members know what it is, and everyone calls it. And that’s fine.”

Why is it okay? Rose does not believe that Tar Heels will be a great conversation after Tuesday night at UD Arena in Dayton, Ohio.

The Aztecs are their choice to be that 11th seed in the south.

“All of you can only talk about it for another 24 hours because Brian Dutcher and the state of San Diego will let them knock out anyway,” Rose said.

“For me, the state of San Diego would be very ready to overcome UNC just for its defensive skill, and how they make sure that end of the floor they are going to look for.

UNC TOPS SDSU in net ratings (36 to 52) and Kenpom (33 to 46), but Rose relies on what Dutcher has been able to do with his Aztecs in recent seasons.

SDSU did the Sweet 16 last season before losing to the eventual Uconn champion, and made the national championship game during the 2022-23 season, falling to the Huskies there too.

SDSU was 21-9 this season, while UNC was 22-13 years old.
