They talk about this great tradition of NM basketball, but they've never really done much in March. They do pack the Pit when they are winning and have great fans. They just need a coach who can take them to the next level and one they can afford. A good coach could get them back to making the NCAA and maybe win a couple of games. It's not like the bar is set real high there. Maybe you are a young guy, but UNM's basketball tradition has a lot to do with their NIT success. Up until about 1970, the NIT was considered the better of the two tournaments. In 1970 Al Mcquire declined an invite to the NCAA to play in the NIT so his Marquette Warriors could play closer to home. https://maconlikebacon.wordpress.com/the-ncaa/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
