Is our season over

A lot more practice time for vegas 16 (which always seems to be the bowl argument) and time for fans to plan to make trip, i like it

The others, contrary to what some are saying on hear, are not buy ins. You put up $50k to guarantee to home games. If you should lose the first one you get $25K back. Also all of your tickets sells go to the home team. So you will make all of your money back. If tickets are $10 a piece you only need 2500 tickets sold to break even. If you play on the you do not put any money up and all of your expenses are covered.

I understand what you are saying, but you are fronting $50K with the hopes of recouping as you advance, that my friend is buy in. It may not be the term people want to use or hear, but it's the same as buying into an investment, just with the promise of a better return. If it wasn't a buy in then you would not be fronting $50K to host a game unlike the NIT.

Dont we want to show we spend more to these big budget conferences? Besides it seems like a very paltry amount in the big scheme of things

You play the game to reward the fans and athletes, but in a time like this you better cover your cost. Last year a few supporters stepped up to move the floor to the Blackham Coliseum.

It is still a better bargain than bringing in Stephen F Austin like some wanted to do or any paying any mid major to come here for one game. Also for all those people that were giving LATech@Ruston reach arounds last week, where did their 23-9 record get them? No not even a sniff of the NIT. CUSA lone representative in the NCAA Middle Tennessee (24-9) is a 15 seed.

CBI tourney field set; UL not in it. CIT remains a likely possibility for the Cajuns bball team (same tourney as last year).

[31Ragin97]

For a tournament named after a website they have a crappy website and twitter. Im not sure where they are announcing the teams but wikipedia is updating them

Ruston U was not worthy of an NIT invite. When you see teams like Monmouth and Saint Mary's being left out of the NCAA, you know it's a tough year. BTW, not to argue but UAB won the regular season and they are in the NIT. The SBC does not because LR won both.

20 of the 32 teams in the CIT have been selected with 10 pairings announced. That leaves 12 teams to be selected and 6 games to be scheduled. From the Southland, Sam Houston is selected. They will play Jackson State. Interesting that Texas A&M Corpus Christi is not selected yet. They were second to Stephen F. Austin which was undefeated in the Southland. Corpus Christi had a 15 and 3 record in SLC play and has some quality guards. They may be in the CBIT but I am not sure of that.

Looking more and more like Vegas.
