File this under…no one cares, but Ohio State got past UMass for the NIT title. The NIT is normally uninteresting, but this year especially. All four 1 seeds advanced to the Final Four for the first time in history! That just makes the NIT even more uninteresting.

Stank-0 is sure those college kids played their hearts out too, but it’s the NIT. The NIT is the equivalent to being Mr. Irrelevant in the NFL, the last pick of the draft. Let the players explain:

“This is what happens when you put an NCAA tournament team in the NIT,” Butler yelled, surrounded by his teammates after beating Massachusetts 92-85 in the title game Thursday night. “Write that down and send that to the committee.”

Stank-0 has to disagree, because NCAA tournament teams are in the NCAA tournament. Look kid, no one expected a return to the Dance after losing Oden and Conley. Life goes on, keep you head up, cliche, cliche, etc., etc. blah blah…fill in the blank.

Even the guy in the pic above, Kosta Koufos, doesn’t look like he wants to be in the pic. Stank-0 can imagine he lost a bet and had to hold the “trophy.”
