Yeah, people need to realize that if HoF teams and perennial RCA winners know they don't have that kind of leverage, Johnny 5xxx team doesn't have a prayer more often than not. I could go on about how ridiculous it is that schools wouldn't let students who want to go learn something leave school to go learn something, but support students cutting class in droves to go see regional finals in basketball. Not talking about that kind of culture change in this thread, though.
