I will say, it would make sense for teams that did not get to play good chunks of their schedule. Think of these less as postseason play and more of an MTE.

People want to get their panties in a bunch over losing a NIT game, but I am totally fine not hanging a “2021 69th Best Team” banner at Chaifetz BilliesBy40 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almaman Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 there may be such a banner @ those covid infested spring breaks down south. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have thought he be coaching at some nowheresville community college or selling Kias at a dealership in Ocala, Florida. Quite the contrary. Reading some of the clippings Ekker had a pretty active post-SLU basketball career. Coached at several Continental and USBL clubs. Was a advisor and assistant coach with the Magic. Opened a basketball school with branches in China. Also wrote several books on his coaching philosphy. In fairness to Ekker, I wonder if he got anything in the way of administrative support.
