As long as Tarholes lose quickly it will be a great tournament. Until that happens, I will not be happy.
Prestigious?
Did we turn down a NIT bid? That would be the only reasonable explanation, but not sure why we would have turned it down.
clt says 100% we declined a NIT invite
I really donโt understand Xavier and N.Texas getting in over us. NT because they won it last year??
clt says it is obvious we declined an invite
Why would we pay to play in the CBI and then decline an NIT invite? Is this just a hunch or does anyone really know?
Mike Hill knows. Will he tell?
Come on now, we got snubbed. No chance we turn down the NIT.
Looks like the NIT based their picks on the NET rankings.
- SMU 65
- Memphis 75
- South Florida 78
- North Texas 79
- Charlotte 114
Need to play a better non-conference schedule and/or win those games.
North Texas is a better basketball brand than Charlotte.
Someone laughed but they have three NCAA appearances since us.
For virtually all of the college basketball world outside our fanbase we are completely irrelevant. Mediocre in our best years, bad in normal years.
I donโt like that truth, but it is what it is. Fearne has to turn that around.
No snubbing here. N. Texas actually won a game in the conference tourney.
Michigan State with 14 losses and a # 9 seed. SMH. No team deserves in with 14 losses.
The NIT posting their new requirements for P5 entry on screen and discussing them was almost gas lighting to me. Weird especially when one of the P5 teams had a freaking losing record!!
