Of course, that is a tongue-in-cheek instance of the Suppressed Evidence Fallacy: we have 6 guys in the quarterfinals already and the tournament hasn't even begun:

Maryland is tied for the lead with 270 maximum possible points, even though it has been assured of finishing last.
It could be worse. We could be Sacred Heart who has 0 potential points yet to score this postseason. Did anybody else see that? I appreciate anybody who can lace up their shoes and compete in DI but how does a team go 0-20 in the first session of a conference tournament? It is not like it has been just this year where they have struggled. Every year they are lucky to get 1-2 guys into the second session of the EIWA tournament (which is not very strong once you get into the bottom half of the teams).
I’ll take “Useless threads started by restless fans the eve before a major tournament for $800”
I see it as a Feel-Good thread for all the other teams.
I will give a thumbs up to the Sacred Heart folks for not dropping the sport. It would be easy to do with that kind of record. Knowing how hard wrestlers work, I would show up and root for those kids. Wrestlers are a special breed no matter the record.
You know Tom Ryan would be obsessing about this if the Bucks were in our place and the race was supposed to be tight. He’d be calling for an overhaul of the Bye allocations.
All for the good of the sport of course
My understanding is that Sacred Heart has less than one scholarship, and further, the coach there has to fundraise the gross domestic product of a mid-sized country.
It's been 12 years since their last national qualifier (Payam Zarrinpour), for those wondering, and they've gone through more coaches than I can count. (Brewster, Cameron, Lausier, and now Clark...and I might be missing one or two) Also, for those wondering, their current AD is former New York Mets manager Bobby Valentine.
This cliff jump is more apropo. There is a rumor this is how Nolf got so great.

SHP, thank you for sharing this here. I knew Sacred Heart existed (so my NY Italian cousins told me). But I didn't know the backstory. Much appreciated
Ryan should embrace this opportunity.
With 9 guys wrestling mostly inferior competition in the first round, they should have the lead going into quarters ... great opportunity for face time on BTN.
