[QUOTE="Second and Chalmers, post: 1296916, member: 527609"] I tend more towards the idea that the best way to honor those guys is future success of the program they worked for and helped sustain. And to the extent that continued participation in the NIT makes that more difficult or less likely (and I do suspect that), I would say bowing out might be the best thing. But would I have rather been in the First Four? To the extent that it would have meant Groce stayed (which I have come to doubt), I suppose not. The 2017 Illini are a weird test case for this question. [/QUOTE]
