The NIT is hard to get into. Let that sink in a little bit. I'm sure many of you are still saying, or at least thinking, "Joe, you are out of your mind! The NIT isn't hard to get into. I remember teams that the Hokies had that weren't as good as this one, and they made the NIT with ease." You are correct about the last part. This Hokie team is quite a bit better than some Hokie squads that even had home games in the NIT. But times they are a changing and the NIT might not be The Dance, but it has become something to be quite proud of now, especially for this group of Hokies.
