Bubba Cunningham (again, UNC’s AD who doubles as Selection Committee Chair) gets $104,000 bonus for UNC making the NCAA Tournament (one month’s salary), AND there’s another $225,000 in bonuses in play based on what happens in the tournament.Something to sleep on.https://t.co/0R6psS7jJF

You know the name Bubba Cunningham now. He’s the North Carolina AD and also the committee chair for this year. He’s the one who had to go on CBS, stare into the camera and say West Virginia didn’t make the Tournament because Tucker DeVries got hurt and some other bullshit. But now we’re getting my favorite part of the day after. Conspiracy theories. This is the biggest one.

Bubba Cunningham made $104,000 thanks to a bonus of UNC making the Tournament. It’s true. He’s not the only AD to have this, but he’s the only AD who is the selection committee chair and got a bonus for his team on the bubble making it. I think they should have to win the First Four game in order for him to get paid. Everyone knows the First Four isn’t the real Tournament anyways so add some stakes to it…
