Because this isnt about 24-25 texas vs 23-24 shu for a spot in this year's field.How can u justify a 6-12 team is in when we had 13 wins last year

Isn't there a pretty large payout for the participants, including players? I am not sure, but thought I read that somewhere.Agree: despite playing in Las Vegas, it has loser written all over it. Bad, tired, demoralized teams from the big conferences not good enough to make the NCAA field of 68. The NIT will be more interesting and competitive with mid majors seeing it as a big(ger) deal.
Wonder if Crown considered allowing teams knocked out of the dance during first weekend to enter? On the other hand, that might look like loser x 2.

Amount of sour grapes by Seton Hall fans over St Johns, Repole and Pitino never ceases to amaze me. You would be licking his jock strap if Pitino and OR Repole were part of Seton Hall. Alas though we have Priest scandals and poverty NILIt depends. Would Kurtz be as obnoxious and thirsty as Repole? I guess I’d learn to live with it either way, But that’s how I’d see him. Someone at Seton Hall would have to find his phone number first, though.
We have always agreed on Pitino. However if we would have called him he would have blocked our number immediately. There is no question he wouldn’t ever consider us for a nano secondhappy for him.
Don’t know of there’s a thread on this but I said it in the past I’d take patino as my coach in a heartbeat. I said when he went to SJU he’ll have them competing for Natty is 3 years. May be ahead of schedule. Anyone still think we shouldn’t have given him a call when we were looking? Don’t tell me the right coach can’t recruit to SHU. SJU facilities are a dump.
Please stop with the semantics.That is not the definition of a coaching tree.
Bill Belichick has a coaching tree and most of it is sub par

And an easy target for them. They don’t seem to ever bring their outrage to some of the other world religions quite the way the Catholic Church offends them."1. NYT never averse to taking a shot at the Catholic Church"
Often richly deserved
If a fan base is going to hold 3 last second losses over getting better and fishing the year 12-3 in the last 15 beating multiple ranked teams, taking MSU to the wire, they'll end up setting themselves back. How many last second losses did Izzo have this year. When you're good you usually don't get blown and lose to other good teams usually those games come down the final minute and whoever loses, the coaches get blamed in those games.Agree he could be in the same boat as Turgeon very soon. 3 last second losses this year arguably could be blamed on coaching. They were trending to the 3 seed yesterday. Their fan base will not accept an NCAA round of 32 again.
guys, no bb coach at a power fb program is going to a bb only if he can help itThis is patently false.
and a heady guy in charge every second12pts, 12 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals, 0 turnovers yesterday.
