In response to james
The point isn’t, “Who will fare better in the NCAA?” (although, sorry Eli fans, IMHO the Tigers couldn’t have fared much worse). It’s “Who deserves to go?”, a 2 game winner in a rushed thingy (I love that name!), or a full season champ of 3 months of work.
Give the winner of the GD Thingy the NIT where, BTW, it and the League have a much better chance of success. The real Champ (you know, the one who gets the banner) has earned the trip to the Dance, regardless of one’s perceived notion of whose chance of success is better. Final point: if the Champ probably will get a higher seed than the winner of the Thingy, whose chance of success is higher then?
Until the League is assured two spots, even one as a play in, screw the Thingy.
