       Nobody cares about NIT, it's all about the NCAA Tourney from
       what I've been reading. Another thing is the Automatic bid to
       get in the Tourney does not apply to the mid-majors
       conferences.. I think that's wrong .. teams that played really
       well regardless what Conference their in should have the same
       shot of getting the Automatic bid. Why is it the ACC, Big east,
       Big 10, Pac12 are the only conferences where they have multiple
       bids when a Top team in the small conference wins the regular
       season conference but stumbles in the playoff games and is
       better then some other 3rd or 4th bid team doesn't get it ?

       I agree...the NIT this year would be an Epic Fail.

       Gents, I have to disagree about the NIT. YES, I also want them
       to go to the NCAAs. However, continuing their season in the
       NIT...which could mean two, three, four more victories...is not
       much worse than one and done in the NCAAs. But we're one on
       wanting them to win the AE Tournament.

       What are the chances of getting tickets to the March 16th game
       if the Seawolves make it that far. I'LL SAY SLIM TO NONE !!!!

       iBO's musings  ;D
       - Tre was fast!!! He is like John Wall with better shooting
       touch LoL... Carson "Super Sonic" Puriefoy
       - Warney and Tre.. next three years going to be fun!
       - We played poor and still won! Thats good right?
       - I am very nervous about the Albany semifinal game. They have a
       good coach and good players. Obviously we Must win the
       Binghamton game first. I really wanted avoid playing Albany at
       the tournament. I know we beat them at their home this season,
       but still feel little uneasy.
       - I am with the camp who will consider this season a failure if
       we fail to reach NCAA. NIT is nice, but its like the 3rd place
       consolation game in FIFA world cup that no one cares about or
       remembers (for those who follow soccer).
       - I absolutely hate the condescending tone of the Vermont fans
       on AE forum.

       Hammer, im prob not gonna bother getting tickets in the case we
       make it to the chip game. Students, faculty, season tickets
       holders, and the away team all have priority so for fans like me
       that didnt have the cash to become season tix holder, we are
       doomed. They should push the student section back and add chairs
       in betwwen and increase seating to 1800-2000...

       I hear you. I wish they try and do what you suggested but, that
       gym is so tiny they probably aren't allowed to push the limit
       much higher then where it is now because of Fire codes . But who
       knows. I forget what game I was watching on ESPN this weekend
       but the entire bottom level bench area was had double the amount
       of students standing and and they looked like sardines in a
       can.. It was great though.

       well. Next year no one is playing games with me. I already got
       my FB season tickets, and will get the BB tickets just so this
       sh** doesn't keep happening to me. Thank god I have a job now.
       LOL
