    We are good enough to make NIT, maybe we get a second win and make a small run.

    Good. We went from NIT Final 4 to a NCAA 5 seed the next year. Let's hope we do the same in 2022.

    You lose a lot of your snarkiness credibility when you can't even embed a Tweet.

    I’m happy our guys are playing, rather play in NIT than be sitting home.

    We are a 4 seed- 13 teams would have had to turn down bids for us "to slide in"

    Me too! Could be something for them to build on for next year. We were pretty young this year and once these players become juniors and sophomores they should be a lot better.

    That's the hope. Seeing Stewart at 2nd pick of 2nd round in this mock kinda scares me

    There aren't. 16 teams made it and the lowest seed is a 4. Who cares though? We made it. In a normal NIT, we would've made it even if no one turned down a selection

    Still though, in a normal year, 32 teams make it, so we easily qualify.
