W.Va. gov.: NCAA snub 'robbery at highest levels'
Briefly

West Virginia Governor Patrick Morrisey expressed strong discontent with the NCAA's decision to exclude the Mountaineers from the men's basketball tournament, citing the selection process as unfair. He announced an investigation by the attorney general to ensure transparency from the NCAA. The Mountaineers had a respectable season with six Quad I wins, but a loss in the Big 12 tournament played a role in their exclusion. The team's first-year coach noted that they were devastated by the decision, especially considering key player Tucker DeVries' injury prior to this crucial period.
West Virginia deserved to be in the NCAA tournament. This was a miscarriage of justice and robbery at the highest levels.
The next team out was West Virginia, and they had an outstanding year and unfortunately knowing Tucker DeVries was hurt, player availability is something that we talk about quite a bit.
