9 seed was actually worst case scenario

[4in16]

Geez. We are one crazy 3 point hoop from being in the NIT. This is gravy,

We were in regardless based on these seedings Cinci didn't move and Tulsa got in after a beat down by Memphis.

We lose to Cinci we might not be in. The way this team played, getting in was not assured. One way or the other, winning the AAC tournament probably boosted our seeding. We survived a mediocre Memphis team with all of our bigs in trouble. That's probably the last time we can get away with that. We also still have too many possessions that go nowhere. We rely on D, and I can't see us going very far just relying on D. But we get to play, so we'll see.

So your saying Tulsa's resume was better than ours before the AAC quarters on Friday?? That's my point, if you listened to the committee chair or read his comments or even saw the s-curve which is posted in a different thread we were safely in.
