It would be absolutely worth it if we would end up with 26 wins and a trophy. Anything less, probably not worth it.DungeonRealm wrote: ↑Fri Mar 11, 2022 7:13 pmThe NIT looks like a pipe dream right now
Maybe we should go to the CBI, get 4 wins (for school record 26) and a trophy!
NIT 2022
If the players, especially our seniors, want to participate in the CBI i am all in favor of it. It provides them with another challenge, more exposure for the program, and the chance to continue to develop our young players. Go Dins.
An interesting dilemma.
If Furman doesn't get into the NIT and we pack it in for the year, at least the program and its supporters know that our team didn't leave anything on the floor in Asheville - we finished with a BANG, not a whimper.
How would it feel to sign up for a pay-to-play in order to prolong our season only to be eliminated by someone like . . . let's say Wofford?

The Basketball Classic/ CIT doesn't look pay for play anymore according to their Wikipedia. You simply give up gate and concession receipts. Jason Donnely said to wait and see what is in store next for this team. I will wait.

Chatty is getting a 13 seed which means the committee thinks there are 12 teams in the tourney that are seeded less than Chatty. Arguably Dins would have gotten 13 seed meaning they are in top 52 in the country
NIT should be that at least 1 Team from top 15 Confs should be represented in the NIT. Its the only way to get a true head to head strength of conferences
See below one NIT bracket with the NET rankings to the right. The Teams with the * are the Conf winners. It will come down to how many of these win their trouneys and dont take NIT bid
No way South Carolina, St Boni and Drake should get in before Dins unless politics gets in the way. SoCon commish needs to cash in a few favors on this one...

Vermont wins and gets auto bid. Priceton wins and moves to fnals tomorrow.
I'm waiting too.
Could be CBR and JD have differing ideas on this issue. Who has the Final Word?

Let’s hope the players and coaches have the final word.Davemeister wrote: ↑Sat Mar 12, 2022 2:10 pmI'm waiting too.

almost beleivable except Clemp NET is 83 and had a horrible year in the ACC. If SC and/or CU get in before FU... well... FU
Mississippi State is making a huge run in the SEC Tournament. What could have been had we pulled that game against them. A win there might have gotten us in the NIT for sure. Oh well. Still holding out hope for that bid.
