It looked like the NCAA men's basketball tournament selection committee giving Vanderbilt the gift of an invitation as one of the last teams in the 68-team field had saved Commodores' coach Kevin Stallings job.

And even that invite was in question because sources told me that the person that makes the travel arrangements for NCAA tournament teams had actually called South Carolina, told the Gamecocks they had been invited, then said to hold on and they would call back in 10 minutes.

South Carolina never got the return call. Vandy got the NCAA bid and then promptly lost by 20 points to Wichita State in one of the tourney's First Four games in Dayton.

Didn't half of South Carolina's roster get suspended for robbing houses during the NIT anyway? So, in the end, wasn't it probably for the best?

And USC didn't recognize Dabo's distinctive giggle as the line went dead? I call B.S.

South Carolina is to mind boggling screw ups what Alabama is to football national championships.

Based on the NCAA statements, south carolina was never 'in' the tournament. Just an error by an idiot who sent a congratulations text to the wrong school.
