Re: Highest Seed not Chosen for Finals
It's called marketing. A company can make the best product in the would but, if they can't market it they'll go bankrupt. First is no different. In fact First is a microcosm of the business world. I know how it feels. We were 13th at Drexel in 2004 and didn't get selected. This year we were 13th again at Chesapeake and got in at 8th seed. We were lucky because our marketing effort was lacking again this year. I believe we picked the teams that had come to us with a plan. We were persuaded by their efforts.
