I find myself in agreement with the following statement from Greg Ambrose:

And as such, I throw out the following question to those advocating a bid for Quinnipiac this year: Do you (those supporting a Quinnipiac bid) actually think that QC is one of the top 12 teams in the country? Bear in mind, I'm not asking where they rank in computerized (and possibly faulty) polls, how they compare to the bottom seed in the other conference tournaments, or whether on a given night they could beat one of the top teams; only whether those supporting a QC bid believe that QC is one of those top teams.
