Seriously, I had no idea there was such a thing. According to this article it is on ESPNU at 8:30pm tonight.

Good to know.

Thanks!!

Come on A, I thought you were better than that! Ive been watching the NIT selection show for a couple years!

Lets hope for the best. I want a home game, but Ill settle for being in it at all!

6 seed @ Southern Miss on Wednesday on ESPN3. Seriously??? A 6 seed?!?!

Now there's a matchup that creates a lot of excitement.

Tough match-up for us. Hope our heads are in the game. 21 point loss in Cleveland may well have cost us a 5 seed.

Southern Miss has former UT guard Neil Watson. 2nd leading scorer for USM.

A 6 seed in the NIT?? After everything the Rockets have done this season?? That's just an insult. No respect whatsoever.

Zero respect. This should give them a little more motivation.

Well, this game gives us a chance to earn some respect--but we have to be ready to play. If we go down there hanging our heads we'll get clocked. If we play like we did the first half of the season and add just some semblance of D we can pull the upset.

A 6 seed? Sounds like someone from the NIT selection committee watched our game last night. That's not fair.

Or not at all. There is no selection show for CBI or CIT. You can't have a selection show with no tv or radio.

USM has 1 player on their roster that actually came to them from a high school. Everyone else came from a community college, prep school, or another university.

Finally we are playing some good,pre mac season, type teams.
What we have at stake is gaining respect.
Now is the time to play great basketball and set the table for next season.

S Miss a 27 win team. No major wins got beat in the Conf tourney. Very similar story to the Rockets'.Nice opportunity for the Rockets.

They don't have an "event" or a press conference or anything. All it is is the schools getting notified and announcing it. Geez...
