1. There's no place to exclude a team based on what a coach says or does, as that isn't a criteria for selection.

2. One can objectively look at the stats (eg: blind-resume) and conclude that VT has been incredibly unlucky to get left out a few times. While the simple solution is to just win more games, the reality is other similar teams didn't need to win more games and they got selected.

3. Nobody is saying we're a victim (that's a term you introduced). If we get left out, we only have ourselves to blame for putting us in the position. However, we're saying that VT being on the bubble historically has not been very rewarding to VT, and you can look at Bracket Matrix and computer rankings to see how statistically unlucky we have been.
