    Yes. They mentioned a conflict of interest with the arena. They would have went to Illinois St as well if they had won.

    Thanks-- but, they should have gone to ISU since they are the #2 seed in the bracket, vs ISU's #1 seed. Same conflict happened to Indiana 1st round making them play a road game--- when will these schools learn they won't always be in the NCAA's, and leave their gym open for these other tourny games?

    A signed and committed booking versus a maybe? C'mon, you know better.

    Indiana declined the home game, said too many students were on spring break, lol.

    The folks at MSG can,t be to happy with TCU - G Tech and the other 2 possibilities for the final 4 in the NIT. Also heard they have had trouble selling tickets for the east regionals this Friday and Sunday. They thought Duke vs Nova

    They actually said that Assembly Hall was too good to host a NIT game. No issues sending the "student athletes" on a trip to Georgia though. Or the fact the IU women hosted a NIT game this year
