Better to get snubbed than...

...take an all time ignominious L in the first round. Sheesh. Purdue will never live this down.

I disagree.

Always better to get in.

I agree with your disageement.. But losing
in the first round of the NIT is much worst
what a embarrassment. TOTAL waste of time
for every one involved.

The last three seasons Purdue lost to a 13 seed, 15 seed, and 16 seed. I’d much rather lose to Hofstra in the first round of the NIT.
No one cares about the NIT.
That might be the worst three year tournament stretch ever. At least when they lost as a 13 seed, the weren’t really projected to be a 4 seed that year.

That’s probably the worst I’ve seen. Virginia a close second.

All they had to be to win the end game was to be awake. And they still lost.

That were tighter than I can remember seeing a team in a long time.

We didn’t get snubbed. The players and coaches did, and there’s no chance at all that they agree with this take.

Purdue had Edey as the only playd that showed up.They showed once again that they have great difficulty overcoming full court pressure defense.

Most people around the country dont even know we lost in the NIT because they dont care. Lose a game like that in the NCAA and the while country is talking about it.

I think Purdue will be ok. Lol.

If FDU goes on a run and makes the elite 8 then is it less of a big deal for Purdue? Or worse?

Purdue was RU’s biggest win this season and they just got sent home by a NEC team
