Naturally we would all prefer


Mar 18, 2019, 12:29 PM

To be in the big dance but there aren’t many top flight teams that haven’t played recently in the NIT.. I recall the unbeatable tar holes playing just a few years back. They lost as I recall.

The Tigers have been to the championship game twice in recent times. Both close loses to good teams.
Before the ncaa expanded to 64 teams there was more opportunities for teams to be in the NIT and that expansion probably takes away some of the luster of being in the other ncaa tournament. To me, one of the advantages of playing in the nit is the opportunity to play in Madison Square Garden for the championship. That could be a positive in recruiting as well. As you know, we have a youngster joining our program next season from this area and that likely will be a big plus for the Tigers.

GO TIGERS.
Support this team to the end

Could be right.

It definitely means Brad is recruiting the right players if the final sales pitch to recruit is

" the question is son, do you or do you not want to go somewhere that will put you in position to play in the NIT every year"

I'll pull for them to win every game

but thinking this helps recruiting in any way is delusional. No ACC level recruit is excited about the NIT
