^ you missed some of the sarcasm in Jarons post, what he was trying to say is there are tons of UK fans that believe the NCAA kept them from winning several more titles. Im sure UK has valid arguments, but every team can find an excuse for not winning the national championship.

The NIT used to be a big deal, but teams went to the NIT because they felt like they had a better shot at winning that than the NCAA and at the time, the NCAA didn't reimburse schools for playing in the tournament. The rest weren't good enough to play in the NCAA.
