The Bonnies have a decent chance at a 20 win regular season. A win or two in the Tournament would get them in the NIT. we hope.

It’s great to dream but the “new NIT” is not a realistic opportunity for the Bonnies with the new agreement with the P6. The NIT committee is not going to select the 5th or 6th place team in the A10. It’s unfortunate and hope I’m wrong, but the “Mid-Major Squeeze” is in full effect.

It would be interesting to see how they'd handle this... according to the NET, the Bonnies are a Top 3 team in the A-10... if they were to somehow reach the conference semis, I'd have to think that would be really favorable for their chances at an NIT berth.

We are about to find out where we finish...anywhere from 4th to 9th.
4th if we go 2-0 and VCU goes 0 - 1 losing at Dayton.
9th place if we go 0 - 2 with GM winning out, st Joe's winning.
By the way, Duquesne is looking scary good. Since they beat us in Pittsburgh they may be the best team in the A10

By the way, Duquesne is looking scary good. Since they beat us in Pittsburgh they may be the best team in the A10 Duquesne is 9-3 since starting 0-5 in conference, but Loyola and Richmond are even better at 9-2 in their last 11 games. If Richmond wins their last two regular season games and then gets to the A10 finals, they will be very close to the bubble. It's an extremely long shot, but the A10 could still get three in with a LOT of luck. -Richmond finishes first overall at 16-2 (24-7)...Wins R1 against SJU/Mason (Quad 2). Wins second game against VCU (Q2), loses in final...Would be 26-8 with 8 Q2wins. -Dayton finishes third at 14-4 (24-6)...Wins R1 against UMass (Q2)... Loses second game against Loyola Chicago...Would be 25-7 with 3-3 mark in Q1 and 6-4 in Q2. -Any other team wins the A10 tourney.With the scenario above, I think you miiight be close to getting three teams in the dance.
