'Pards open in NIT
They announced the field for the preseason NIT yesterday and once again a Patriot League team is in the field. Last season Army opened against Temple in the NIT. This season it is Lafayette in the field, opening at Indiana.

We have no idea how they pick the teams for this thing. While we are happy to see Patriot League representation, wouldn't it be nice if they picked one of the league's more competitive teams?

A Holy Cross, Bucknell or American, teams expected to be in the league's top tier next season, would be better picks than bottom dweller Army was last year or Lafayette, in its first season with scholarships.
