Why would anyone want the NIT over the NCAA tournament? One and done in NCAA tournament is better than winning 4 home games in the NIT.
We've already had this arguement. The only reason behind it, would be to gain experience by potentially having more games.
The notoriety of the NCAA and potential of Sweet 16 or more...That doesn't cross anyones mind. We'd rather play in mediocrity to gain "experience".
Again, my question to you all, If this is the case, Why was everyone pulling for the Wyo mens team to get an NCAA tourney birth? Why not "gain experience" and would rather them play in the NIT or better yet, the CBI, where we have a better chance to make a run?
Or the classic football example, of which no one could argue, Wyo goes 12-0 and gets a top 5 finish...But our fans would prefer us to play the Vegas Bowl over a BCS bowl because we would have a better chance at winning.
My famous quote that made some of you think and even pissed some of you off, You all are doing a classic Burman, "We are who we are." in this arguement.
POINT: One and done NCAA tourney is far better than an NIT championship
