So, in that bracket MU could play GB or Indiana.

Finding it very hard to care...very hard.  It's not because I'm a spoiled fan. It's because this team so drastically underachieved.

I think im one of the few who would rather win the NIT than lost in the 1st round of the NCAA. I mean, wichita st. won the NIT not too long ago. Just sayin.

Stop whinning folks. Consider the NIT a preview of Buzz's coaching for next year. This will be the best indicator if he will more aggressively with the young bloods or more same old same old.

Classy as usual.

Must be nice to never come up short in your life.

BTW, Buzz and these seniors are better at playing and coaching basketball that most people on this board have ever been, or will be at anything.

We fo-sho should be seeing a lot more Deonte Burton over the next few games.  I too think that Buzz will tip his hand a bit regarding p.t., looking to next year as opposed to rewarding the seniors, or even heavy minutes juniors.  Reward them for what?

I think that's a gross generalization that's based solely on elevating basketball above other more important and critical components of modern society.

Agreed. Don't recall a message board about our successes or failures. Hmm, however, for those doing great things for society well, glad someone is.

I'm not sure if that's true.  I don't see Buzz suddenly changing his lineups and/or approach because it's the NIT.

Too bad they were not better at playing and coaching basketball that the 15 teams they lost to.

Nope. It's not a value judgment on the importance of bball. I am simply saying that because Buzz and his players are at the highest level of college bball, they are likely better at that than most people here are at whatever they have chosen to do in their lives. I think that is a pretty safe assumption.

A deep run in the NIT will.

With no quality, big wins, not surprised.  Damn shame to a season which was strange to say the least.

Let the PG position debate continue.  Now it didn't get MU to the NIT and MU not even a top 100 program this year.  Yikes......

Wow.  No IU either.  I would have lost money betting against that happening.

A few weeks ago they were. Not sure why you take so much pleasure in dashing other people's hopes.
