Damn right I do. In late February, we need to be concentrating on winning the Horizon League and getting into the NCAA Tournament. Once that possibility is out, then the NIT. If they don't invite you, you take the CBI. The pluses far outweigh the minuses.

With the ncaa, nit, cit, cbi, it still 40% of D-1 schools that go to post-season play. No, it's 34.5%. Almost 2/3s of the teams stay home. 140 by 344 is 40% |

GhostofDylan and I, while sitting here at Reeeeeed Robin, put together a list of NIT, CBI and CIT teams. It's not perfect - we have about 5 too many teams in the CBI - but we expect certain teams will decline invites, most likely BCS teams. Here is our list |

If Green Bay wants to continue playing, I see no reason that it won't given the RPIs of those that have already accepted invitations to the CIT.
That would give the Horizon League a record six postseason participants.

Honestly I hate the Bracketbuster because you come out of conference play to play a game that for most years really has no meaning. It's all risk and low reward.
Any post-season play is just that POST season.

It should be noted that Milwaukee's win over Fairfield gave us an edge in the postseason pecking order.

Vermont wins the American East.
Some dude rushes the court in a Sterling Sharpe jersey.
Weak.
