In the final post before our return to full form tomorrow, we’re ranking what got us here: The NIT’s of recent years.
4. 2020 NIT
This one was virtual. It was fine. But it was very sad. And took more work than we wanted it to take, if we’re being honest.
3. 2019 NIT
If you work hard enough, the NIT will come to you. This was the Austin NIT. And it was lovely.
2. 2017 NIT
You never forget the one that made you fall in love. So thanks, Tacko Fall. Thanks, Dan Muller. Thanks, Tom Crean and Josh Pastner and Jamie Dixon. Thanks, Cal State-Bakersfield. Thanks, Derek for coming up with One Shining MomeNIT. Thanks, Steve Alford for not being involved but making it very easy to make 2018 predictions.
1. 2018 NIT
An absolute blast. The high of highs. The All Things NIT NIT. The Reno year. The first trip to MSG. Big Red. That dude from Utah’s uncle and aunt. Man, this was fun. This was really fun.
