Bay Area Tiger 347 Report post Posted March 18 Pitt declined the NIT. Wow. Indiana State had a net of 29 and no go. We are all old and have seen the slights through the years but what a suck fest on the Mountain West and to see 2 of their 6 teams in Dayton is truly laughable.

So you could say that from 1991 (when we last made the tournament) to now, a span of 33 years, we, along with UMES, UMKC and UNH, are the most inept programs in D1, of those who have been in D1 since 1991 or longer. (Inept in terms of getting to their conference championship game) It also bears noting that at least 20 (give or take) of the programs you listed, who have never been to the tournament, were not even in D1 in 1991. Additionally, your list doesn’t account for the converse-schools that have been to the tournament more recently than us, who weren’t D1 members in 1991 No issues with that! Back to back to back 19+ win seasons! 🥳🥳. Can’t expect to win them all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That, and the money can help the conference. Do you know Joey D can do with another unit?! The possibilities are endless with that great innovative mind. It’s been a decade since a caa win, which was a PIG. Also love that they sent 3 of the 4 Alabama schools to Spokane. And the other to SLC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mat1992 2,236 Report post Posted March 18 Sun article on Timberlake from Jake. Even though he’s having a bad season, he’s going to the tournament for the first time in six years. Might be a short trip if McCullar and/or Dickinson don’t play https://x.com/baltcosun/status/1769710292655595822?s=46&t=nScacl1TWT-KyOwj5stBaw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
