To play in the NIT and make a solid run, or make the NCAA and get eliminated in the first round?

I think I'd rather make the NCAA and be an early exit.

Getting spanked in the first round of the tourney by a lower seeded team is better than winning the NIT.

Who says they're gonna lose in the first/second round anyway? They are starting to become one of the cliche "team's you don't want to play."

This question is absolutely ridiculous. I'll tell you why. The days leading up to the first game of the NCAA Tourney are priceless. Hearing your seed on Sunday and then thinking, talking, reading, and the anticipation of that first game are just unmatched. Filling out the brackets, having your team as one of those teams you push a little too far. It's what fan-dom and sports are all about. Anyone who says the NIT tournament is just trying to incite trouble and doesn't get what the true feel behind the NCAA tourney is.

I know you're just feeding off the babble that came off sports talk this week, but it's just stupid. Even losing, is a major step for a program who can say to themselves "Here's what they did, here's why we lost.."

As long as you don't lose by 30 then the NCAA the way to go. The crap around UT's program was horrible the week of the 1st round last year. Go the NCAA in an 8-9, 10-7 match-up and take your shot. Sometimes, a team like UT (if they can get by the 1st game) can make some noise.

Here is a better question for the OP.

Would you rather get beat in the first round, or make it to the final 4, and/or win the National Championship, but then a few years down the road and have it vacated, and no proof of going?

Hahaha! It depends on who is willing to TRAVEL or not. I would assume if we were in the NIT, we would be hosting some of the games.

If you have to even ask this question, you'd probably be better off not following college basketball.

Any play in the NCAAT>NIT Championship.

You can vacate all you want years down the road. The memories and experience have already been made. So, I'll take a title.

And the fake articles you write? Got you. You are a joke sir. And a big fat phony. Hope you get banned soon. You fake loser.

A title with Calipari as coach? History says you won't be taking anything, but the NCAA sure will.

After reading some of the posts in this thread, I looked up the posting of the edited article. Judge Smails already had a reputation for regularly posting misinformation, and, as has been said, running and hiding whenever someone called him on it.

Adding made-up quotes and posting them as part of a media story is a new low. That kind of activity can eventually get him sued, except that Stokes no doubt has better things to do than deal with hands-down the most pathetic individual to ever join VN.

If JS ever had an ounce of credibility with anyone on VN, it is gone.

We have had guys try to impress us by lying behind magic phones, so I'd thought we'd seen it all here. It's not a surprise to get UK fans joining to thump their chests while the UK program is at its highest peak since the 90s, and our program is rebuilding. JS was already taking this practice to a new level even before he made the unethical decision to post a made-up quote. Posting an "excerpt" without including a link, something that should never be done, was a dead giveaway. Kudos to Bleeding for doing the research.

Including a link when copying/pasting material isn't just about adding credibility to your post; it's about giving proper credit to the author.

Perhaps JS makes his way through school by stealing the works of others and claiming it as his own.

The last time I saw something this openly dumb was in the 4th grade when a classmate turned in a recent sports column from the local newspaper as his own story on a class assignment. That ridiculous lapse turned out to be an anomaly for him. He picked a good age to have his 'idiot' moment.

I wonder how old JS is. No one knows his true identity, so the deserved embarrassment is limited to a screen name. If I were JS (yuck), I would leave this site forever, join a UK site under a new screen name, soak up UK's season among a crowd of friendlies, return to my real life in the real world, and never plagiarize or libel ever again.

My hope was he'd be banned, if he's not atleast everyone is now realizing exactly what and who he is.

I really thought I had seen it all, only from a UK fan though I guess could I expect this. It's people like him that give them the bad rep and for obvious reason, what a dumbass.

UK VOLS If you want my guess though, he will delete his account and start another, I almost guarantee it.
