Hmmmmmmm.....I will say yes, but only if we end up with a minimum of 17 wins....we need to keep winning so that our RPI crawls upwards. And, maybe someone will consider giving us a home game considering our location is a pretty big market.....do you think it's a coincidence that we haven't had a road bracket buster game yet....Chicago is where it's at.

They have been struggling a lot this year and I don't know how well the well do. If they get into the NIT this year, it is due to their past accolades...not the quality of their season. The games against Detroit, Butler, UWM and the Bracket Buster are musts if they want to see the post season. The losses to DePaul, Duke & Geo Tc. and even UWM can be forgiven...they are quality teams. It's these other losses that might keep us out of the NIT.

It seems that I am taking this team on a game-by-game bases. I keep telling myself that if do well in this game and the next, then we should be ready for the post season. But each games (Youngstown and Loyola), we barely won. So, I'm going to say it again. I'll see about the Cleveland State game. If we do well, and do well again the next game, I think we should be good to win the horizon league.
And yes, I do believe our only ticket to post season play is winning the HL. No way are we getting an at-large bid, or an NIT bid. Sorry, folks.

Although I don't have last season's schedule in front of me. I remember us puttering around .500 and then turning it on towards the end. This team has had great games and very ugly games. We've got 13 games until the HL tourney starts. All we need is to string a few Ws together, which I feel we are very capable of, and we'll be back in business.

Easier schedule at the beginning last season, but still. The fact of the matter is that this team has alot of talent and I think they're beginning to find that out. If we live up to it, we'll be scary!
