Which tournament in NY?  The Legends at Barclays and 2K at MSG don't have Marquette listed unless I have bad info.

The pre-season NIT has been around since 1985.

Since they went with a preseason version that allows them to invite, you know, teams that will actually make the NCAA tourney.
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

In '15-'16, 'Nova started the season winning the preseason NIT, and finished it winning the NCAA Championship.  Same with Duke in '09-'10. 

In '12-'13, Michigan won the preseason NIT, then was national runner-up.

Recent finalists also include Gonzaga, Arizona, 'Cuse and UConn.

So it seems some pretty good teams knew.  I suspect we might have some good competition....

Marquette played in the pre-season NIT around 2000(?)   
It was a bigger field with I believe 16 teams and the first two rounds of games were played on campus.

Marquette hosted South Alabama in the opener and lost rather decidedly.

I knew and I'm a girl.

It started the same time the NCAA post season tournament went to 64 teams.

I knew, remember, I'm old, I was trying to make a funny with calling it the Not Invited Tournament, oh well.  It was called the Not Invited Tournament because it was for good teams not invited to the NCAA.
So much for historical perspective, just the facts mam, just the facts.
Do I have to explain that one also?  Think Friday.

Seton Hall, Virginia, Vanderbilt and Rhode Island is this year's field. Starts today.

Remember the Milwaukee Classic?  Great tournament, but nobody came and the rent was probably too high, and Wisconsin had a problem with the beer.

I remember it well.  Back in the day before my dad had season tickets his good friend Irv Stauber would give us his opening night tickets every year.  We'd see Bucky vs. their 'reasonable' opponent in game one and MU vs. our 'cupcake' in the nightcap.  Probably the way I saw my very first MU game around 1968 or so.

Damn. So we'll either get Kansas or Louisville in the opener most likely. Maybe the Quentin Grimes Bowl?
