ku is ranked 16 and JG responded that the AP rankings determine the seeding in the tournament.

That is completely and factually not accurate was my reply.

In fact the committee does use some rankings but the AP is not one of them thank god.

Please explain why this message is being reported.

That is not what he said in response to a question regarding - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 2/3 13:48:17

I would have said "influence" rather than "determine" but... - zounami MU - 2/3 13:52:36

Guess what? AP rankings are released every Monday. - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 2/3 13:59:15

If you had any intelligence at all (and you have proven that - JG A - 2/3 14:09:31

I'm more convinced than ever that you have no idea how - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 2/3 14:13:20

I know exactly how they are - JG A - 2/3 14:18:33

I'll bite. How are they partisan picked? Explain to me how - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 2/3 14:28:27

So, it's up to me decipher what he really meant when he says - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 2/3 14:12:57

yeah, that's called reading comprehension (nm) - zounami MU - 2/3 14:14:40

you're still arguing "determine" vs "influence" (nm) - zounami MU - 2/3 14:12:08

No, I have agreed that there is some perception that - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 2/3 14:16:22

That's spin. How could getting as deep as possible into - zounami MU - 2/3 14:01:05
