TUF Talent pool?

Does anyone else think that the show could get somewhat better fighters than they cast. A guy whos only fought to promote his crab shack? I think they could find some very talented fighters that would be way better than what they have

like i said before..its obvious that the structure of the show is NOT to gather a group of the best up and comers but to find 2-3 guys who have potential and mix em along with cans in order to build those 2-3 guys up

Yeah its pretty clear they weren't looking to get the 16 best lightweights in the country, but once I saw that with Allen Berube I was pretty mad, because my teacher went to the tryout with around 10 years of jiu jitsu experience as well as wrestling/boxing and muay thai and a 2-0 professional MMA record. Both one sided victories in the first round, he literally lives MMA, and here he gets beat out by the "Crustacean Sensation" who's hyping his Lobster house.

Well this is the first and last time I'll bitch about it, just needed to get that off my chest.
