1987 NCAA Tournament Selection Show

[@deemusic836]

My brother played in the tournament that year. Carven Holcombe TCU. They loss to Notre Dame in the second round.

[@andysozio8556]

Listen to the committee chair, it sounds like teams were not really evaluated on the kind of criteria used today. "we didn't feel like a team with 14 losses should be in".

[@daboys1215]

"...so you can write it down." LOL. How times have changed. Now we just print it.

[@matthartleyjr9180]

missed having the selection show for the 2020 tournament

[@Bart848]

The last ncaa tournament where teams got to play on there home court Syracuse,Alabama Birmingham DePaul and Arizona

[@vdubproductions2646]

What sucked is that UAB and Arizona both lost, depending on what time their games start they probably had to go to class after the game unless classes were cancelled for that day.

[@holtridge7337]

Indiana won the tournament that year beating Syracuse.

The coverage was so much better back then - better analysis and less B.S.

[@charleswilliamsjr2095]

Know why Memphis or Louisville wasn't in the tournament because they were in probation!

[@paulsonj72]

Louisville wasn’t on probation but the committee felt at 18-14 there resume wasn’t strong enough to make the tourney.Memphis St. was on probation due to violations in the Dana Kirk era.
