NIT 2024: Next in a Long Line of Basketball Disappointments

[KennyRogersRoast]

I forgot to break out this sweet bastard in 2022. All set for Wednesday now.

 

[SC DEAC]

hard to believe that NIT run was 24 years ago. That was fun. Lets do it again.

 

[MichDeac25]

So I watch a lot of South Carolina games and they were really good this year but Auburn absolutely crushed them both times they played. That fact that app st beat auburn makes me nervous.

App. St could have won the SEC championship!

 

[WakeFanAdam]

I had a nit champs tshirt but it succumbed to a tragic accident during my time at App involving trespassing, fireworks, vodka, and lots of mud

I still think Wake has royally fucked up the ticketing situation.

Our link never worked to buy our season tickets. Last night when the email came out. This morning before 9. Never.

I don't see any tickets anywhere close to us available for purchase, and nobody that I'm in communication with (in our section) was able to purchase their own.

Yep. Deacon club members should’ve been able to snatch these up. Instead they’re going to app fans

 

[PhDeac]

Hold up. NIT tickets went out on the open market before they were available to Deacon Club members?

They certainly screwed up the link. You had to navigate to a different part of the site to be able to buy. Luckily someone on Twitter figured that out last night and I was able to get some really good seats before the general public sale.

No. They went up last night about 10:30 and the general public sale started this morning at 9am

Heard the NIT committee planned this game as a memorial for it

 

[deacvision7]

They've opened the upper deck. General admission tickets for $20 a pop ($15 for kids).

 

[scooter84]

I just bought 2 general admission tickets for upstairs. If anyone has good seats downstairs that they end up not using, let me know...

 

[DeacsATS]

Gonna just try to enjoy it for what it is.

If we win? Great! I get to watch more basketball. Players get extra games.

If we lose? On to portal season.

 

[diverdeac]

I will be impressed if wake wins this vs a hungry 27 win mid. Major with an axe to grind. That would show some mental toughness.

 

[daaberry]

FanDuel has Wake as the favorite to cut the nets down in Indy at +600

Agree…Why not make the most of it? Team, coaches, fans all.

Nah…I got an email with opportunity to purchase as deacon club member before they went on sale generally.

 

[Colonel Angus]

I will be impressed if wake wins this vs a hungry 27 win mid. Major with an axe to grind. That would show some mental toughness.

Especially with 14,000 App fans expected to be in attendance...

 

[cville deac]

Was just looking at the NIT schedule for the 1st time. Wake, VT and BC all have tough 1st games. This could be a short stint for a lot of ACC teams this weekend. Sorry to be a Debbie Downer, but just saying.

 

[Biff Tannen]

Wanna know why we're in the NIT ? We lost to Va Tech, Georgia, Utah, and LSU, and they're all in the NIT with lower seeds than ours. Could be a great revenge tour though !

 

[wufu bufu]

@awakegirl you at the BC/PC game?
