The rest of the field was meh. I think extra costs associated with these lower tournaments make it undesirable for some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't be about the competition for us, should be about the needed experience ........ however, the cost could come into play if it doesn't make sense.

If they do it’s based off of name, not really their season. Edited March 10, 2019 by Rex Havoc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams like Liberty and Sam Houston State. No thanks. The CBI has better competition than the CIT but either way schools have to pay a fee to play in those tournaments. No thanks. Give the players a couple of weeks off accept for injury treatment then start off season workout program. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIT guarantees a spot to the smaller conference regular season champs who don’t make the NCAAs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
