I wouldn't mind another home game and a berth in the big dance doesn't look likely.

I'm hoping they are a lock if they only win ONE SEC tourney game...

The NIT is a worthless tournament for the 1st losers.

Definitely NIT but the players will probably not be motivated much at all. Not really sure the fanbase deserves anymore home games.

The fan base? The fan base didn't screw a year we were supposed to be dancing.

The NIT games would be awful. We have seen what this team plays like when they aren't motivated. They might lose by 40. I'd rather just not do the nit and get ready for next year.

As much as you want people to believe this, it will never happen. NIT = shitty basketball teams.

In a world filled with one and done freshmen, college basketball is already littered with a lot of oddly constructed rosters. The NIT sucks.

lol

The bottom 10 teams in the NIT are usually automatic qualifiers themselves.

So yeah, this is just a painfully incorrect statement.

ETA: Sure, downvote because you're wrong

I'm going to sum it up the best way I can think of:

"Come to LSU and you will be competing for an NIT championship!"

I can remember one of my first games at the PMAC as a kid w my Dad. I saw the NIT banner and asked him "Whats that?" He responded "Not In Tournament", meaning the NCAA.... I went on thinking that for many years.

Who cares?

LSU will not win their first SECT game anyway.

The NIT ISN'T passing up the opportunity at Simmons. (That's if LSU doesn't win the SEC Tournament).

LSU is a lock for a postseason tournament.
