The Johnnies are 100% in the NIT field.  They are going to want 2 big east teams in, especially one from NY.  It is only a matter of where we are seeded.

Towson, Nicholls, princeton, make it over st john's?  


All automatic bids, 3 of the 12 conf champs who lost in the conference tourney.

Auto bids.

Bonnies and Virginia below us in NET, but unfortunately better programs. So that was two spots eaten.
 
Yikes.

I said a few days ago that making the NIT would keep this season from being a total failure. Now we're here.

They are 3 of 9 automatic bids. So, at least 23 teams selected based on whatever criteria is used.
 
Oregon also below us in NET. So that was three spots total eaten. Not sure who else was lower just by sight.
 
Interesting matchup with Iona playing Florida. Wonder if they did that because of the rumors that will surely be out there re: Pitino to FL

I don't care what the computers say, the fact that Xavier is a 2 seed, we finished ahead of them and beat them twice yet didn't make the tourney defies common sense imho. In any event, team put itself in this position so time to put the balls away.
 
68 invited to NCAA , 32 invited to NIT and some of us are still hoping to catch a bouquet. 
Not to be difficult or negative but is there anyone amongst us that would honestly still say this season was not a huge disappointment? 
We returned the preseason player of the year , the rookie of the year and co-defensive player as well as the coach of the year and we don’t even get an invite to the NIT, how embarrassing.

An NIT gut punch.  Whod a thunk it?
luckily once you mushed us with your prediction the rest of us knew our fate  was sealed. I had that meme done before the selections started  :)

I can't believe I watched that horrid show only to get shut out. Who would have thought our week non conference schedule could have kept us out of the NIT.
