[QUOTE="glandon1960, post: 299116, member: 2458"] It depends where the team is coming from. For this GT team - which no one expected to win more than 12-13 games (many posted single figures), NIT is great - and probably better for them. For teams with a lot of experience/talent (i.e. Indiana) it is NCAA or bust as they showed. NIT is great for teams on the rise, young teams, over achievers, and mid-majors. Key for Power 5 teams in NIT is the kids need to care - and clearly this Tech team does. That said - next season we will likely have a more talented team - but that does not always translate into more wins in near term - schedule will be tougher, the freshman usually can't play defense like these kids do, we will likely be less consistent at point guard, etc. Impossible goal this year was 'any postseason', next year an 'attainable' goal is NCAA (but we need to see what the newcomers can do before declaring no NCAA a bust next season). This is going to take at least 2-3 more years to get to a consistent high level. [/QUOTE]
