I agree with him on this one. Feel bad for those who are seniors and grad students and won't get a chance to extend what they have left of eligibility for the year.

Crean is correct. It would have been a good way to develop players, much like a bowl game.  It is embarrassing that IU bowed out because our program is in such disarray and because coach Woodson didn't want another loss on his record.

In most years I'd agree but who are we going to develop continuing to play under Woodson's coaching?

It like a temper tantrum watching these bigger programs decline an invite. I mean do better.

No he played in the NIT.   They were suppose to host but something conflicted with that so they played at Georgia Tech instead and lost

They didn’t get selected by the NIT one year and Glass declined a CBI offer that is what you might be thinking of

We said no prior to the invites.  We probably wouldn't have received one based on our NET.

Tickets about 3x normal price too. I'm sure that's an NIT/NCAA thing, but I'm making sure Schertz and everyone is telling the truth about not doing anything until the season is over before I commit.
