    Blue Blood Bias --- NYT

    LINK

    This piece mentions Xavier in the headline, but nowhere else. Shut out in a piece about programs who are consistently shut out.

    At least Xavier got in the title.....and then they went on to talk about all the blue bloods they said got all the attention. Hmmm. Brilliant.

    If these schools didn't play each other, everyone would be saying that they're not actually that good because they don't play anybody. We've had five games featuring two top fifteen teams in five days. That's not a bad thing. Butler, Xavier, and Gonzaga have the opportunity to play in showcase games. All three of those schools play in what I would consider to be multiple showcase games.

    So....what exactly is this guy's point??
