Georgia State's win

Georgia State’s win in the NCAA tournament was good publicity for them. It may have garnered their coach a shot at a higher level job. It no doubt increased the NBA stock of his son. It got the school a moment in the spotlight.


However, outside of a minute nudging of the conference RPI, I doubt it did very much good for the conference as a whole. The announcers may have mentioned the Sun Belt in their comments, but not very many fans across the nation will know much about us, before or after GaState’s games. Impressions are fleeting when you are outside the glare of the bright lights, and that definitely is where the Belt is on the national scene
