https://shorturl.at/BITX2 NCAA Announced Major Changes to the NIT and the College Hoops World Is Not Happy PATRICK ANDRESOCT 27, 2023 NCAA 宣布要改变补偿大赛的选择规则 大学篮球圈对於这样的改变不是很开心 The NIT is an ancient, if slightly notorious, college basketball tradition. Every year fans of NCAA tournament-bound schools serenade their rivals with chants of "N-I-T," likely oblivious to the fact that the historic tournament predates its larger, more prestigious cousin. NIT 是具有历史但又有点争议的大学篮球传统 每年没有入选疯狂三月的球队 总会在客场被球迷以 N-I-T 的口号招待 However, on Friday college basketball fans mobilized to defend the staple of March Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Traditionally, the NIT field automatically includes any team that wins its conference's regular-season title but does not qualify for the NCAA tournament—historically a boon for mid- and low-majors. 大学篮球的主管单位要改变 对於过去 NIT 的邀请规定 其中取消小联盟的季赛冠军的保送资格引起最大的反应 In 2024, that will change.
