No way. The NIT has always been a loser's consolation prize. Being the best of the shitty teams is like bragging that you can whisper the loudest.If I told you at the beginning of the year that Iowa was a 1 or 2 seed in the NIT would you have taken it? My guess is a resounding yes
If Iowa makes an NIT run and makes it to the garden would that be a successful season? Huge yes
Perspective time
A 2 seed in the NIT also means that you're closer to the bottom of the Big 10 than the top. How's that for some perspective?
