NIT is our only hope as well, but I lost some hope when I found out no team with a losing record has ever made the NIT. We're probably boned there.

We have a losing record too
We can finish the regular season at 16-15 if we win out, but then there's the conference tournament...perfectchaos007

At least your AD has enough sense of accountability to fire your coach mid season. That program has been stagnant for years, granted you had sanctions to deal with. Probably Lil Romeo's fault
That's pretty cool. Didn't catch any of that on TV (had to stream it on ESPN 3 on my iPad so they switched to other games during the half).
Also, Wiggins was at the game, right?
Ah okay, makes sense. And I forgot Dee Bost was on Miss St. He was definitely a good player.
Edit: wow, I just saw a fucking massive dunk on Sportscenter from Chane Behanan of Louisville against Depaul. Please tell me they didn't call a charge there (defender was well inside the restricted circle).
the NIT banned losing records until they got bought out by the NCAA, and then they moved to a selection commitee with guaranteed bids for teams that win their conference regular-season. The Pac-12 actually got an NIT auto-bid last year.
USC fans, just try to win your conference tournament- 4 games in 4 days you deserve to get in.

90% likely UK is going to the NIT, IMO. SEC is kinda weak this year. I think they need a good Tourney showing to get in.
I think UK is going to Dayton.
I think we're in an okay position at the moment. Lunardi actually has us safely in and off of the "last 4 in" list as of late last night. I feel like if we take care of business against Georgia and then somehow win at Arkansas or beat Florida at Rupp then we're definitely in. Certainly not easy, but not impossible.
Oh wow. Those shorts!jesus christ adidas teams looking like a bunch of clowns in the NCAAT. sleeves? zubas shorts? good lord.
Baylor and Louisville's are okay as far as the colours, but Cincy and Kansas look pretty bad. The shorts are an eyesore.
Edit: Notre Dame's isn't terrible either I guess, though aren't their colours blue and gold?

I like ND's. If the shorts were normal, they'd be kinda cool.

It worked last year for us with that ultra light jersey. We broke them out in the Big East tourney after losing to South Florida and Syracuse, and then won 8 straight winning the conference tourney and making the Final Four.
Baylor also went pretty nuts too if I recall with those jerseys.

Adidas doesn't even try when your team name doesn't have the letters F.C. in it.

Michigan and N.C. State also passed on the new unis.
Good on them, don't support that bullshit.
but its lime sherbert colored....
Tradition is overrated. Adidas just makes some ugly ass sports stuff. Now their lifestyle stuff is waaaaaay better than Nike.
Haha, yeah. I was kinda wondering how neon orange camo-ish shorts would look though. I mean, yeah, they'd be awful, but would the look worse than Cincinatti's?
We will if we make the tourney.
At Indiana they may just kill the AD that changes the uniforms. If you go back and look at the uniform through history the only major change is the shorts.
I hope not. It would probably be a public safety concern due to possible blindness in the stands and seizures from all the people watching at home.
The tops and sleeves are fine though so maybe the school could come to some agreement.
I'm just glad State won't be wearing that crap in the Tourney.

Good move, that's going to be a hell of a basketball league.
Also, we're going to be fucked next year. Chances are that Notre Dame leave a year early because the only real scheduling hangup is for football, which they're not playing in, and Notre Dame just wanted to stick around to help out the Catholic 7.
So we'll be playing a crappy schedule for the most part, as well as having to deal with changing all our logos to the new name for a year.
Get us the fuck out, go to the Big Ten Maryland, fuck.
yep. coming into the season i think most folks hoped for the 4/1 lineup. i was looking forward to seeing us bomb it all season.
roy stuck w/ the 3/2 so we started hoping for pj to replace one of dex/paige because we figured roy was stubborn enough to stick w/ the 3/2.
took long enough for roy to come around. i guess he accepted that hubert sucks and james/johnson arent ready for primetime yet.
i can't help but wonder what our record would be if he had went the 4/1 all along. i don't think we'd beat indiana or @duke regardless, but i think we could get a few more wins out of butler, @texas (seriously wtf?), miami, @virginia and @state.
