Why are you people already talking NIT???? what the hell has gone so wrong with our bball program that "FANS" are talking NIT before the regular season is even over and before the big 12 tourney starts...Let's just root for our team and have a good showing for a big game against bobby knight's boys and then focus on winning the big 12 tourney. ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN PEOPLE, that is why the play the damn thing...I get sick of this "meh" look at our team and program, I know no one is giving up on them, but don't sell them short either. Even if they only won 1 conference game all year (much like our fball team did in this disappointing past season), they still need the same support as a tinsley/fizer led team that only lost 5 games all year.
IF we are eliminated from the big 12 tourney, THEN start talking about the NIT all you want, but until then...don't say "i am just being realistic"...bcuz these guys need all our support and you never know what may happen people.
That's what makes a truly great program and fanbase, having people there no matter and I thought I would hear something more what i'm saying on a website called "CYCLONE FANATIC"...It's sad to think we couldn't even fill JTS for DMac's last game...HILTON AND JACK TRICE STADIUM NEED TO BE PACKED ALL THE TIME, rain or shine - that's PART of what keeps a program steadily good. Our coaches in wrestling, football, women's bball, men's bball, etc... are all putting in the effort...
JP and the athletic dept is definitely putting in the effort, so must the damn fans. NIT should be defeat for
ISU bball, so we need to stop admitting defeat before it ever comes.
