NIT or NOT?
« on: February 17, 2017, 07:07:07 PM »
The one lucky bone I still have is still holding out hope for the NCAA tournament.  Realistically, the National Invitational Tournament (NIT) looks the most likely.  Should we accept a bid to the NIT?  We are a young team that might benefit especially if Curdog keeps oscar.  I imagine people will be butt rash enraged if this happens.

Your coach is in his 5th year after inheriting a consistent NCAA tournament team, you miss all post season play for 2 straight years and you accept an NIT bid? Sorry, not going to that. Not donating anymore. No interest.

Either way, the program is demonstrably improved over the prior season. LHU.

You should always accept an NIT bid. I'm not sure if we are good enough to get invited, though.

I wish our seniors would make a statement like this guy:

Maybe I expect too much?  :ck:

19 wins make us a possible 1 NIT seed.  Oscar can use a NIT appearance as  a recruiting pitch. If its close against baylor, then NIT okay.

Oh, we'll take that NIT #1 seed and run if we get the NCAA snub. You know this.

Yup. Weber will claim its progress, talk about how they lost some heartbreakers and didn't get some calls and bounces,... Then he'll brag on the newcomers and describe them as late bloomers and how Diarra was boogered up. I hate this man so much... Beyond description.

We should play the NIT.  No postseason looks worse than lame postseason.

Absolutely.  But that's where oscar's personality comes into play.  It's a lot harder to get the benefit of the doubt when you constantly say stupid things and refuse to take responsibility for your failures.
