But you have to play better ten that..,this team does not play well on the road against good quality teams. This blow out will cost us a trip to the dance unless we win two in the A-1o...we come so far but....we are cursed

But I am very disappointed about how we faded in the second half today (similar to what we did at Miami). We are better than that. |

It might possibly take 2 wins now because this was such a blowout late in the season. One game at a time though. Win Friday and go from there. Lose and we're in the NIT. |

I think you guys are overreacting. La Salle will definitely be in with a win. There is at least a 50-50 shot they are already in.
The A-10 is getting 5 teams.
We already finished top 4 in the regular season.
If we win a game we will finish top 4 again in the A-10 tourney.
I know that I'm simplifying this but who else could you possible put in over La Salle?
It will be VCU, St Louis, Butler, La Salle and maybe Temple or if another A-10 team wins the tourney they might take Temple's place.

If the committee is looking to get the known names like Kentucky in they'll grasp at straws to eliminate a team that has much less cachet, someone like La Salle. |

I really don't see us being in over Temple if they win tomorrow. No chance. I don't think they're really better than us, but they looked better when we played them. I recognize that they have a lot of bad losses, but honestly, they'll have at least five top 50 wins at that point, including one over us. We need to win a game, at least, because we haven't moved beyond the teams we're competing with.

Some people keep thinking there is some bias against small schools but I really don't see it. For every Drexel situation there has been a Virginia Tech situation. I really think they follow their protocol.

Don't compare us to Drexel last year. Drexel didn't have the quality wins We had this year. My gut says we have the wins to get in, but I would feel better with a win in Brooklyn. The NCAA tourney is watered down with 68 teams which gives me confidence we get in, but I also didn't think we would get in the NIT last year, so who knows. I would like to compare us to the last 4 in and try and provide an unbiased opinion.

Just did some research and noted Drexel had an rpi of 66, we are around 40 which is where Alabama was last year and did in fact make the tourney as a 9 seed. I will always be proud of what this team accomplished this year. The a 10 is alot stronger than in years past, please keep perspective.
