This Wagner team got heart, but unfortunately for them, all 7 of their players might foul out the game against the Heels :damn:

Three out of the seven were on 4 personal fouls in the game just now :picard:

Honestly think I’d take us against half the 1 seeds atp. Houston’s guard defense would be very problematic and we got UConn unfortunately. But I think Purdue and UNC would be fine

Crazy that a potential S16 matchup could be 2 of the 4 highest graded teams. Committee really was on some shyt with the East region

You got dudes who already got portal commits too…1 + 1 = 2 here.

With the TP being open yday, and tampering likely being around for weeks, if not months, NIT better revert to being the place for mid majors. High level programs are ignoring them nikkas no doubt

Call me a hater but I hope this Lefkoe guy isn't gonna be a host for the B-team throughout the tourney, this guy annoys the hell out of me when he does the Tuesday TNT games.

It was the original postseason tournament and the final four was in Madison Square. Then I guess politics happened with the extreme need to market to the heartland and it became second tier. The final four happens in Imdina now.

Before the pandemic, we had four postseason tournaments so you had to be sorry sorry not to get in.

As I said in another area, NIT just hanging around for a merger. Higher seeds will get to play home games in early rounds like baseball.

Before the 70s, NIT used to be a more high profile tourney than the NCAA but that changed once NCAA added more teams. These days, it's just basically there for historical purposes.
