ESPN corruptly manipulating college hoops again for $$$

[SRT4driver]

To the shock of, I'm sure, absolutely no one, it appears as if ESPN has found another way they can corruptly manipulate college hoops to make more money for themselves, and hurt their media competition (see: changing 'Power 6' to 'Power 5' for all college hoops references/content across all ESPN networks, by all ESPN employees, the moment the Big East signed with Fox Sports instead of them in 2013).

This time, starting this season, ESPN is trying to directly influence the NCAA tournament selection committee by having their extremely biased and proven far outlier ESPN BPI metric added to the metrics used to select NCAA tourney teams.

Specifically, it appears they're doing this to decrease the number of NCAA tourney bids for conferences with non-ESPN TV contracts (mainly the Big East & Mountain West conferences), and increase bids for ESPN conferences.

Ooof, it appears to be getting worse (or ESPN is now running the official NCAA twitter accounts).

All Big East teams and all ranked Mid-Major teams left off of Saturday's tweet... except Gonzaga.
