So.... CBI/NIT?

[Matt from A700]

Any word on our team's participation in the CBI or even NIT?

I imagine as defending CBI champions, and the fact we have 21 wins compared to our 14-17 record at the time we started the CBI last year, gotta imagine we at least receive an invite. Do we play?

Teams a little beat up right now my friend. Don’t think it’s a good idea. 

[RiseUNT]

NIT won't invite us and don't waste money on CBI.

[CMJ]

Just call it a year.

Would you support WBI participation? After watching the tournament games I would buy home tickets. Rice won it 2 years ago. I think it would be a good move for the future.

no thanks!

I kind of had the same thoughts.

Throw in the damn towel and call it a season. Grant should already be looking at offseason moves

[Wookies]

Too beat up. I'd like to see the ladies get some post season action. We've got some good young players that could use the extra practice time.

I don't think we'd get anything out of it.  MAYBE if we won it all again, but the guys wouldn't be into it, so I really doubt that'd be the case.  Anything short of winning it all, and people would make bad comparisons between the two teams and all sorts of other similar things, and get the fan base all divided over it.

 

I just see as very little to gain over the CBI again.

Naw. I've already shifted into MG hibernation mode for the next five months. Other than the spring game of course.

Trash?

 

Or we'd be trashed (like drunk?).

I don't see where W.K. got any invitations. Did I miss something?

I remember reading that WKU won't accept anything other than a NCAA or NIT invite.

West Virginia is playing in the CBI. UAB and Southern Miss are both playing. CIT is a much weaker field.

For what it's worth, the Dons are kipping the CBI this year
