    Well, I guess so. Texas is still in. Did graduate work there but only pull for them as a LAST resort. If they were to beat DOOK in the finals I'd be the biggest Whorns fan ever. My dad went to USC for grad school and in 2006 I got to give him back the football bragging shit he gave me when his Trojans destroyed Oklahoma in 05.. note that title (and every game that season) was vacated due to paying Reggie Bush.

    So ya, Hook em Whorns LOL...

    X ran into a buzz saw in the finals. Still, strong showing should bode well for the tourney.

    Zero legs under them having played 3 games in 3 days and the last one less than 24 hours before. And it showed.

    Coach Smart has a really good team in Marquette.

    Hope to see a 4 seed for X ��

    Wow, I guess the run to the Big East final was enough to reward X with a 3 seed. Did not see that coming but I’ll take it!

    NIT is so bad that UNC refuses to play in it.

    On the subject of VT, any chance they find some $ one day and upgrade the HS gym they play in?

    Fucking pathetic. We’ve got young guys with shoes to fill who missed out on tourney experience last year and would benefit from the competitive yet relatively low stakes minutes that the NIT would offer. Bad fucking look all around.

    As an alumnus of the reigning NIT Champion, I see no problems with the tournament for the also-rans.

    Now whatever that 3rd tier tournament is? No clue how that thing survives.

    They had nice drawings/briefly started construction on new Tarrant Center…..but of course, Covid shut it all down completely….and donors have since pulled their money….it’s quite a mess….no timeline if it will ever get done.

    The athletic teams actually do very well for having such shit facilities. Different kind of kid/student athletes go to UVM….they don’t seem to care that their facilities are worse than HS facilities around the country. If u think the gym is bad/ you should see the locker room/facilities in Gutterson/field house. UVM kids don’t seem to care/no drama.

    FWIW…I think the UVM kids/teams actually have an advantage at home games lol…because the other teams come in there and see such bush league facilities…..Rumor is that UCLA soccer came in this fall/and they were laughing/making fun of the set up…and they then got their asses kicked by by the men’s soccer team……This probably happens a lot/

    With all that….yes, they really should/need to get that Tarrant Center done. The students/student athletes, coaches, UVM community deserve better.

    It would be nice to see it upgraded, hopefully they get it done. They're sorta regulars in the Big Dance from that conference so if any team there deserves better facilities...

    IIRC they get $250-300K just for being in the bracket, and then it goes up from there.

    The funny part is my HS had it's graduation ceremony there. And I graduated from UVM in that room as well. I also went there last week to watch my son's team lose the VT Div I men's basketball semi-final. It is totally a HS gym.

    Bad news bro. I have X leaving this next round ... and ... well ... I have to respect the bracket. Was a hell of a run.

    Beside ... at some point they'll have to face UConn who are en fuego.
