The NIT predictions are below the NCAA. This site had us as a 6 seed and Memphis a 2 seed. If Temple gets bumped to the NIT, i doubt they will give 3 AAC teams a spot.

One of the worst scenarios would be if WSU's win over Temple bumped them from the Tourney to the NIT and bumped WSU out of the NIT.The future's so bright - I gotta wear shades.
We like to cut down nets and get sized for championship rings.

Something inside of me though says they've given all they can give this season. Perhaps it's just me, but it feels like they might be on empty, physically and emotionally. I'm not sure that there's much to be gained from further competition this year. Just a comment, and I hope I'm wrong. I certainly want the team to do what they want, whatever that is.

Can I give the āit depends on who we playā answer? If we have to turn around and go on the road, it will be difficult to regenerate steam in two days. But if we get a home game against a P5 or noted rival I think the crowd can help carry us through to the next week where we may have some renewed legs and an end goal in sight (NY).
Getting a bid to the NIT is a victory for this team, plain and simple. What we do with it is playing with house money.
The interesting thing is 3G said if we donāt get a bid, he will let the players decide on another tournament. Not so sure they will vote unanimously one way or another.

Concur.
Six games sounds about right to me.

Hey, I'm glad folks disagree with me here. I'd love to see these guys tear through the NIT. Sometimes a team hopes they can win. I truly think these guys believed they were going to win the American Tourney. They left so much on the floor, and shortened the bench considerably, I just get the impression that the minuses of playing on outweigh the pluses. Again, hope I'm dead wrong.

Seen this. Breaking News: Wichita State (19-14) is heading to the collegeinaider.com postseason tournament (CIT). #CIT
Both tournaments (CIT and CBI) are getting some big name college basketball brands, and great teams this season!

Calling BS on this. NIT bracket won't be announced for another seven hours or so, and there's a source knowing we're in a lower tournament?
Got a link?

Plus the CIT does not take teams from the American Athletic Conference.
Teams from "major conferences" (defined by CollegeInsider.com as the Power Five conferences, Atlantic 10 Conference, American Athletic Conference, Big East Conference, Conference USA and Mountain West Conference) are generally ineligible.
The CBI maybe but it is still mostly mid-major oriented.
