Especially when it turned out we'd play away to Orlando. I'd just no show the game without any notice now. We've been made a mockery of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a JV trophy at all. There are some really great teams in that bracket. Not the least of which is our Bulls. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying there aren’t some good teams, but it’s pretty much the best of the leftovers. Edited March 18 by Rex Havoc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will remember (and most USF fans will remember) if we win the NIT, and that's all I care about. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know if we will actually make money off the NIT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the teams Sanity by having to travel I4 I guess for basketball it’s not as big of a deal if we have to travel further after this. It’s not like football and traveling with 100 plus players and staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
