So we ran Stans off and after 5 years of suckass basketball

[Coach34]

Tried to tell some of you this in one of the “why can’t we fill the Hump?” threads. Our fan base can’t get over Stans.

It’s silly

Best line of the day from Ari:

Me- "I hope like hell we draw Western Kentucky in the NIT 1st in the Hump"

Ari- "I'm not sure we would have home court advantage from our fans if we did"

What I don’t understand is people saying we won’t make the NIT even though we are 21-10 and 9-9 in the SEC. I’ve never seen such asshats. I get that we didn’t play well this week and I’m just as mad as anyone but I’m not going to sit here and say we won’t make the NIT which we are solidly in no matter what we do down the stretch.

I am not looking at record. I am looking at rpi. Our rpi is 72 now... down 10 spots. If we lose to lsu again Thursday, our rpi is 80ish

A) RPI isnt the only thing they look at

B) Ga Tech and Valpo got in last year with RPI's of 77 and 78

Good deal. When was that updated?

7 is just trolling y'all at this point. He knows our NIT spot is already locked up. Don't feed the trolls.

I don’t know. I honestly think he doesn’t think we make the NIT.

[Liverpooldawg]

As for as the NIT goes, I'd feel better if we win one in St. Louis, for the same reason I thought we had to win the last three and one in St.Louis to get to the NCAA. We NEED to get into the NIT.

Stans fans have got over it a hell of a lot more than the haters and posters. They are not the reason they aren't filling the stands, its more on Rick Ray.

WE WILL BE IN THE NIT REGARDLESS....

It’s Rick Ray. I agree with that. He Grand Canyoned our program and Howland is just now getting us back to post season respectability.

I do not think it is locked up at all. I think 1 win will

[Coach34]

We can lose by 33 in our next game and will still be in the NIT. Only question is whether we will still host or not

[MarketingBully]

So it’s looking like we will play LSU and if we win that game we will play Tennessee. Interesting. This should really test our players mettle and if they have any pride should come out and show these teams who we really are instead of the shit we did show them.

[I seen it dawg]

**** stains.

You are mighty confident when there has not been 1 conference champ yet. Let a couple upsets happen in mid major tournaments, then you have bubble teams go to the NIT. I think we are in decent shape, but 3 butt kickings in a row will not be a good thing

If this is the case then they should be coming back in droves and they aren’t.
Rick Ray has been gone for 3 years now.
As soon as we announced CBH as the new coach the excitement should have been off the charts. And we had a team battling for the dance and the lower level couldn’t even fill up.

Hope you are right. You probably are.

And Greg Byrne. In all honesty it's more on Byrne.

[Coach34]

Stands getting his ass handed to him again tonight. Hell, he may not make the NIT

[confucius say]

And Greg Byrne. In all honesty it's more on Byrne.

And SS. He hired ray and didn?t fix the seating problem.
