West Virginia is pulling Florida!
Gov. Patrick Morrisey (R) spoke to the media at a press conference Monday, denounced the NCAA for excluding the men's basketball team of West Virginia climbers from the Madnest Tournament in March.
With a sign in front of him reading the National Association of Corruption Movements, Morrissey stated that WVU's exclusion from the insanity of March is a “miscarriage of justice,” and that his leadership “doesn't leave” “out of stone” in finding the reason.

Morrisey said he, alongside West Virginia Attorney General JB McCuskey, is requesting the NCAA to provide an explanation of the selection process. From there, they demanded transparency.
Morrisey went on to say it's too early to make a decision regarding legal action against the NCAA.

The first thing I thought when I realized this situation was when Florida fought the NCAA for excluding the NCAA, which turned out to be the right decision for the NCAA.
So, that makes me think… Does the NCAA have a point with West Virginia?
I haven't seen much college basketball this season, so let's take a look at the numbers. Around ESPNthey had an overall record of 19-13 and scored the 10-10 mark with big 12 actions. I'm already on the NCAA side.
It was the man who won more games. It's that easy.
