There are 68 teams selected for the tournament. We were not one of them. So we are not better than any of those teams.
There are 32 teams selected for the NIT. We were not one of them. Thus they are better than us.
2nd graders logic. I can't believe that not only do you think that's true, but actually posted it out here so everyone can see that you actually believe its true. How embarrassing.
Factual logic. Did we get invites to either of those two tournaments? No. Facts. All day long factual evidence.
The fact so many people are jumping to defend our inclusion in this tournament just proves my original point.
What are you even talking about? Defend our inclusion? We were included. There's no defense necessary.
You're just here to **** on a team that no one who has been following all year thinks very highly of to begin with.
This team and season have been really disappointing. If you'd been around here at all before now, you'd know that that's not a controversial opinion. It's the consensus.
But The Crown invited our team, and we have a chance now to go try to win a few games and end a tough season on a high note. Why this is the discussion you decided to finally chime in on is beyond me honestly. You're playing stupid gotcha games with a bunch of people who are as disappointed as you are with our season and more invested.
More invested??? Why because they post here more than me??? Lol that is not investment.
And yet my original point stands. Everyone is sooooo disappointed with this tournament they are spending days defending our playing in it instead of just accepting we are playing in an after thought of a tournament.
Which is weird since so many have agreed with my point but still want to argue it is some sort of accomplishment.
It isn't.
Yes defend our inclusion in a lowly tournament that no one cares about.
Please post tv numbers for our game from this tournament once it happens. The fact you keep coming back to brag about how our inclusion in this tournament is a good thing and we "earned" this tournament and it is better than the NIT.
No one has argued that this tournament is an accomplishment or a big deal nationally. Not a single person. You're arguing with ghosts.
And your general lack basketball knowledge is as much proof of your lack of investment as your season-long absence from this board.
Yes they have. Including you. Which is why I keep coming back. To prove you wrong. I have provided facts. You have not.
Again with the "posting here" nonsense. That proves NOTHING. Nothing.
That does not prove investment. That does not prove basketball knowledge.
Nothing.
But I can provide the facts again to prove I am right. I can provide your own words defending this tournament and our selection to it.
Lack of basketball knowledge?? What are you even talking about??? Are you seriously trying to say because we disagree about the level of prestige of this crappy tournament it means one of us knows more about basketball?? ???? Oh wait I get it. You will come back with some BS about how I don't post enough here which shows I don't know basketball or some bs like that. Because sicem is the ultimate basketball knowledge in the world and the number of posts inside the basketball forum proves that knowledge. Maybe you should contact BU with that information and help Drew figure out how to navigate NIL and his coaching philosophy, development, family, culture and make them mesh well.
If you aren't defending it why keep responding????
Because you are defending this crappy tournament and crappy inclusion in it by our team.
