I?d rather be a 2 or 3 seed in the NIT and get a home game or two. Also give us a better chance to win a couple games going into the off season.
    A home game with about 3000 in attendance?

    No one cares about the NIT except the NCAA making $ from the also-rans that pay for home games to be in it.

    I watched the presser after the game with Coach Howland and Ado and he was rightfully upset about the box out call on Stapleton and I know the reason why. It was a text book box out. I was proud of Coach Howland speaking up on that. He also gave us the big reason why we lost that game. They had 13 offensive rebounds to our 8. If we even that out and rebound better, we win that game easily.

    They don?t shoot them like Auburn does. I think only Auburn beats us at home this year.

    We would also lose a non conference game under Stans that would make you shake your head and go wtf. This screwed up our seeding in the 2007-2008 year and forced us to win the SEC tournament in 2009 and why we missed the dance in 2010. So while Stans had easy OOC schedules he would also lose at least one of those games to a 150-200+ RPI team that wrecked our chances. This team took care of business in the non-con going 12-1.
