The Fran fade

Yeah I think so too, although I could see why winning an NIT could have more benefits.play in game....I'd rather not go down that route though.
I'd rather make the NCAA tournament than win the NIT, so sign me up for the First Four Round of the NCAA tournament.
As much as Fran's teams have faded down the stretch if Frederick is out and the lose the majority of the games left I don't think you can really call this a Fran fade considering the injuries they have.
Depends on the situation....I think if you're in total "rebuild the program" mode with a lot of young kids maybe the NIT would be a better route.
I would never say that and especially this year. Everything is up for grabs. Will there be much of a difference between teams seeded 3-10?
Oh please. That's like a Cyclone fan claiming that Terrence Lewis is ever serviceable in a game.
You can just admit I was right and the fade is happening with or without CJ. They were probably better last night when he didn't play
Terrence Lewis isn't "serviceable"? I think we have different definitions of serviceable....
I'd say there's the top-10 teams and then a bunch of teams that could beat each other.
Dude you have said that the play in game is considered being in tournament. Hell someone even has your quote in their signature line. If there is such a thing as an F- you just earned it.
Till is not a D1 basketball player and it's not close. Him nor Ash should ever see minutes in a meaningful part of a game and the only reason either of them did is because of the injury / suspension situation.
And even the top 10 teams don't scare anyone. A final four run is up for grabs for literally 40 teams I feel.
Meant to type "isn't" as in I believe Lewis is at the very least a serviceable player.
By "serviceable" I mean a guy you can steal some minutes with that doesn't really hurt you. Till was horrible in the first half....second half he played o,k. Doesn't give you any scoring but he at least wasn't getting caught out of position on D and grabbed a couple boards. When him and Ash go in I'm basically watching them the whole time....don't know why. n
You said Iowa wouldn't beat us in Hilton.
I mean they were what 2-1 with one of those wins being over Illinois when CJ was playing so I don’t know how you can say that they were already fading.
Iowa is 1-2 with two blowout losses and their only win vs lowly Nebraska since I started this thread
