Have to make a run in this tourney.
Mis-spoke in the previous thread. I thought Roger was still with Valpo, forgot he moved on to Vandy.
Always compete, oppurtunity for TJL and Kipper to taste post season.

Those rules are nutty.
it's in the name - nutty invitation tourney.
Experimental Rules-
Looks like they're trying to mimic NBA rules
Makes sense to change though. High School and NBA both use quarters. Not sure if I like fouls resetting at the end of the quarter though.

Well, this kinda makes me think that even a win against Michigan on Thursday wouldn't have vaulted Illinois to the dance, as they would have had to pass as least 4 teams.

Halves instead of quarters is one of the few things I prefer about college basketball's rules as opposed to the NBA. And the foul structure goes along with that.
Always worth it to experiment, but I am not inclined to see this as an improvement.
I love that Syracuse is playing Greensboro. Only way that could be more perfect is if they got sent to Greensboro. Selection committee knew what they were doing there.
That's the spirit.

Experimental rules suck, though I'll be going to quarters would allow more concessions sales, if there's enough of a gap in time.
And that Assembly Hall had better be rockin' on Tuesday night, Orange to the rafters.
And please, if it comes to pass, vanquish Illinois State. Western Michigan was bad enough. At least I didn't have to hear from anyone I knew. I know far too many people who went to Illinois State. Must. Defeat. ISU.:tsk:
