If SMU was one of the last teams out, they should be set up for numerous NIT home games at Moody. . . But with @$$HOLES from the NCAA selection committee, who knows!

That's what I'm saying. Your bold statement is not correct. SMU may get a few home dates, but the NIT doesn't care one bit who the NCAA had as the last 4 in. You might sell out a 7,000 seat arena but if you're playing a team that the NIT thinks is likely to sell 10,000 tickets, expect to head on the road.

Think the NIT did away with that a couple of years ago. . . Has to do with rankings, and not how big the arena is.

SMU takes care of their opening round opponent in the AAC tourney and I doubt we are talking about this. If they want to piss and moan they should look in the mirror.

Hey , I thought we wouldn't make it, we didn't deserve to, we played way too

Best of luck in the NIT. Maybe Georgetown will get a bid and we can play you guys.

I like SMU. I took some flak the past couple days for suggesting SMU wasn't quite the mortal lock just about everyone around here thought they were, so I merited an "I told you so" moment.
That's all.
