I'm ignorant here. I think this tourney is now only going to be eight teams... what are the possibilities that Marquette plays in it? Do we know what has to happen? I can't follow the selection criteria/interplay with NIT, etc.. all I know is I'd love for MU to keep practicing and play in Sin City this April. Anyone have good insights that are not #FakeNews #Lies?

Is this the FOX property? I would expect MU to be seriously considered bc of
1) FOX / Big East
2) Past success in recent years
3) a lot of your other non NCAA teams will see coaching changes. MU will be a rare "bad" team that has its coach and core returning players in tact.
The Crown was shortened from 16 to eight teams. The Big East gets only two bids.
It's very likely two are Seton hall and Creighton.
So, probably need some teams to decline to get an invite. Strong finish and a good showing in NY might help.
:-\
Or just win the Big East tourney and we don't have to think about The Crown!
I'd watch it if we went, but would prefer to just doom scroll portal news.

I think this year any games NJ, DO, AS, and RP can get together are beneficial

GE brings up a good point that we don't want anyone spraining an ankle in a season we aren't going to the Tournament. Should hope for a loss in R1 of the BET and head home. Put AS, NJ, and RP in bubble wrap until November.
Heck. Start that now.
