dont attack me.... nit question

Word of advice to all, just put ILHawk on ignore, it's very simple and works quite well, but please stop quoting him. The ignore feature does not block that and I am forced to see those.

Usually true....

Any post game play, NCAA or NIT are beneficial to the team as far as experience and being rewarded for the work and pain of the season. This is the last year we go to the NIT for a while.....

The experience this year will pay off next season, you can bet on that.....

LOL we haven't even won 20 games for 6 years before this season, let's drop the attitude that the NIT is beneath us. We went from sneaking into the NIT to being one of the top seeds, another step forward for the program

This is the best Hawkeye team in years. They are a very young team. A good showing in the NIT will be great for the program. The Big 10 was as tough as it has ever been, and the Hawks held there own in a way they would not have just a couple yeara ago.

sorry to offend but you two posters must be real young and not understand that any post year games are benificial to our team..... its cool i was young once you can keep calling me names... welcome nit

Not young at all. Just not excited to participate in a meaningless tournament when we're good enough to be dancing. Winning just one of the two we pi$$ed away to MSU would have gotten us in. Forgive me for not sharing the enthusiasm.

If we were good enough to be dancing, we would have won one of those games we ****** away.

Don't see playing in the nit wit being beneficial. Individual players will improve their play in offseason workouts and in the weight room.

You know what...the more I think about it you're right. Which makes me want to watch the NIT even less out of fear of a second round exit to Duquesne because of the same BS that has plagued us all year.

I'm excited to watch them play in any tournament because I enjoy watching them play. It's weird that someone can care so little about a team that they don't care to watch them play but then somehow care enough to post on a message board about that same team that they don't care enough to watch.

Does this mean you won't be watching? If so, will you also stay off this board? (Fingers crossed). We can only hear you put down Iowa's "scrum" effort so many times.

Don't pay attention to this board much do you...

More than what remember who lost in the first round of the NCAA tournament.

NIT is about teams with something to prove...usually mid majors mad and teams really disappointed and flat. Used to mean something. Not anymore.

Please provide a link to where I said I didn't care about the team.

How many even remember who wins the nit wit

I'm guessing probably the same number that remember who lost the play in game in Dayton last year for the NCAA tournament.

Don't kid yourself, if the Hawks would have won last night it would have been a trip to Dayton and a play in game for the NCAA tournament to move on to a regional as a 12 seed.
