If we don't have at least 5-6K on hand, I'll be disappointed.

 

Note: I expect to be disappointed.

I expect maybe 3-4K, not as an “appealing” draw compared to last year.

attendance yesterday says 4K, I’d say MAYBE 3.2K or somewhere around that range. I guess student turnout was lower, but should be  a lot higher come Sunday with them all coming back to campus by then.

ESPN has been updated with game times for the NIT Saturday and Sunday...

Delong did not benefit a conference championship until Hope transferred to Joklahoma. 👀

this has got to be the weirdest thread about the NIT basketball tournament on the internet...

It seems we always get the plus. Just goes to show you....respect isn't given...it's earned.

Actually, I think this shows just the opposite… many of those teams on the networks are just being given that treatment by virtue of the name, conference, or tier 1 rights. None of those are necessarily earned, at least down to the individual schools.

I'm bringing four suits.

I'll be there +9, now if I can just get these kids to take a nap so they aren't brutal during the game lol 

[Green Otaku]

I really want to see the team come out focused and ready from the tip off. The last few games have seemed like we have been sluggish to start, let's hope we are focused 100% today. GMG!

[Matt from A700]

We'll know if this is the last game at the Pit this season by tip off. OSU and Eastern Washington in a close game in the first half so far.

Who are y’all rooting for in that game? Recognizable opponent or a third and final home game? 

[CMJ]

Third home game.

Since a home game against Okie State isn't possible, I'm just going to opt for the easier path to Vegas, which I'd assume is a home game against EWU, even if that means only 2-3,000 people in the Pit.

Lots of SHSU here as expected, including their band. Should be a much better atmosphere than Wednesday.

Not outnumbered, but their cheerleaders are a lot taller than ours.

Oh no we've lost Abou.. and Eady with the cast.  This is just terrible news.
