Drake to CIT

[pafan]

The problem is there's always a small pocket of 8-12 teams who get snubbed from the NIT who deserve bids....but there aren't 48 teams, which means you can't fill out these fields properly.

Yeah. Really, if you took the top 16 teams from the CBI and the CIT, and put that into one tournament, it would be a pretty decent event.

Bring back the Vegas 16!! Or... Vegas 8!! or.... Vegas 4?

In seriousness, I do like the idea to combine the CBI/CIT into one thing with the top 16 teams, but it won't happen because they are ran by different organizations.

Why not just get rid of CBI/CIT and expand the NIT to 48? Heck, the WNIT has 64 teams.

The NIT doesn't want to pay for 48 teams. The WNIT and NIT aren't at all related.
