our overall .500 record and two terrible losses earlier in the season, I don't think we were too deserving. The worst team selected had a better overall record. So I'm not too disappointed. That being said, we did have a strong SOS and blew many close games against very good competition so we are probably better than every team in the NIT this year. Despite the lack of a postseason bid, I still think that we had a good year given all the adversity - all the injuries and loss of players in the offseason. And I think it was a superb coaching job by Beilein. I mean we had no business competing with top teams such as Wisconsin, an #1 seed in the NCAA tourney, with the roster we had on the court (2 walkons playing significant minutes, 3 unheralded freshmen starting and our original backup point guard starting)... but we did night in and night out for the most part. And we were only a few buckets from an NCAA tourney bid. If we stay healthy, the future next year is very bright.
