I don’t understand turning down the NIT, especially a team like St John’s
Given Rick Pitino's comments on barstool interview about having to recruit a whole new team I can see why.
If schools finish the season terribly (See Ole Miss going 2-9) or they have players that are wanting out (LSU Ben Simmons year) it doesn't really make sense to play meaningless games.
Really it only makes sense if you are like LSU this year where you will probably get most of your team back. Get guys like Ward, Reid, Williams, some extra reps and build momentum going into next season.

Vandy played in it last year expecting to get 7 of their 8 top players back for this year…then 4 of those guys left. They probably would have been better suited hitting the transfer trail than playing for another week or so
