Kansas it is (NIT)

I know people think "ehh, they just filled a date with Presbyterian." I disagree. I think for a late add, that was a home run and this will be the best D1 team Presbyterian has ever fielded. Granted, that's not the highest of bars, but I think top-250 is highly likely and top-200 very possible.

I am sure you've covered this before somewhere, but why exactly do you feel that way?

I actually haven't covered it too much yet. I'm working on non-con previews for Cracked Sidewalks that will start coming out shortly that elaborates why I am more bullish than most on Presbyterian.

Brew already said it's a low bar...

This is Ethan Happ's contract year to show he can play in The Lig (apologies to Hubie Brown). Go Warriors!

He can't.

The Lig is over slow, back-to-the basket big men with a 4-foot shooting range.

Unless he unveils a consistent 3-point stroke this season - ha! - he yam what he yam.

Doesn't mean he won't destroy us (though I don't think he will), it just means he's a real long shot for the NBA because he has no ability to hit the long shot!

I'm surprised this news still isn't official.  Not really sure what PNIT / ESPN is waiting for.

Kansas and Kentucky will be good, but Duke will win it all.

Go Warriors!

Nope.

Less bearish works better than more bullish.

Has this been officially announced yet? Is it not strange that they still haven't said anything?

FYI, tickets are now available through Ticketmaster.

For what it's worth, no it doesn't. You can see my Presbyterian preview up now with additional comments added in the thread on here. I think Presbyterian has the potential to be a Norfolk State 2012 type opponent. Maybe not with the 15/2 NCAA win, but playing competitively with high-majors and in the running for the conference title.
