i like how Providence clearly pulled strings to host as a 5 seed. I see no reason why UMiami would turn down the chance to host. Its not like the Miami regional will make a big difference. Also, we play in our arena and not the AA.

You don't even learn who you play until Sunday night, then you have to play on Tuesday? That kinda sucks.

I am rooting for URI, but I would like to see a team like Niagara with no talk of NCAA make a very deep run in the NIT.
