Was trying to find the CBI and CIT listing but could not...
CIT won't come out with theirs until the NIT makes their picks.

Ya I just wondered what time they would announce.
Sorry about that. A couple of years ago when we were in it we didn't hear who we would host til 8 or 9.

Eastern Washington hosts Pepperdine,..that's bizarre
Idaho travels to Seattle


Yes that's bizzare.

I wonder how, or even if there was a bid process. I cant imagine that EWU submitted a higher bid, so can only assume that the "committee" saw EWU was near Spokane, and went "oooooo....awwwweee..." at the prospect of playing in a large town. Otherwise, maybe the Fieldhouse wasn't available?? Can't imagine that being the case though...unless there's a gun or garden show next weekend.

Nice to see 5 from the Big Sky move into various tournaments.
 
I wonder if Gfeller will be selected on the travel team, or if he is what his decision will be. Based on minutes played as of late, why go??

Why wouldn't he travel with the team? He's still part of the team, still eligible and all that right? Sure his minutes have been limited towards the end of the season while in a pretty serious shooting slump but aren't you going a little overboard wondering if he'll be with the team for the CBI? Hopefully he comes out of his shooting slump in the CBI and we make good run through that tournament!

According to this article it costs $50k to host a game: http://www.coloradoan.com/story/sports/college/csu/basketball/2014/03/24/stephens-college-basketball-teams-right-to-avoid-cbi-with-hosting-cost-starting-at-50000/6824985/

Nice to see a Big Sky program pony up the cash for a event like this.
