It's time for the NIT! I'm so excited I could pee!

Okay. You try your own rhyming title. It's not as easy as it sounds, is it?

Here are my selections. It looks like an exciting tournament. There are lots of "States", lots of hyphens, and lots of otherwise long school names, so it just has to be good.

Our beloved Wildcats will by vying for their 3rd NIT title. Not too shabby, but St. John's (the UCLA of the East) has 4. Of course, they always have home court advantage in the finals.

So even if the Cats make a magical run to the championship this year, they'll still be one behind. Luckily, Coach Gillispie seems to have his team well-positioned to establish an NIT dynasty.



What? There's another tournament? Since when? And how long has this been going on?
