I guess this is more creditable than bleacher report?

The unfortunate reality is it doesn't matter what our final record ends up being we're still not going to be in the NCAA Tournament this year. We have a good team not a great team and we'll find someone to lose to in the conference tournament thereby putting us right back in the NIT.

We have to win the regular season first before we claim the NIT berth....

No we don't. Our RPI will be high enough to get us an NIT invite not that I really give a crap about being in the NIT again.

If your lucky you will be in the NIT...But MTSU loves the NIT so it will be good for you guys...

Let's just say NIT will equal colossal failure. We've never had as much depth as we do this year and likely never will again.

From what I heard and read we had some attitude problems last night which doesn't bode well going forward. Considering no one on the team is getting more than 25 minutes a game it's only going to take another loss or two for the unselfish sacrifices being made to begin to turn into internal strife. I just have a bad feeling.

It's a loong season and Ark. State has a good team.

We will be fine, but we won't get an at-large. We'll have to win the tourney in Hot Springs, as usual.
