Message: [QUOTE="YoDore, post: 4926015, member: 12010"] You're probably aware of this, but just in case...the NCAA ran a women's NIT for several years but finally dropped it a few years back. Fans showed little interest, and few seemed to care when it was dropped. Now, with a surge in interest in women's basketball, they've brought it back as the Women's Basketball Invitational Tournament. In the absence of an NCAA invitational, a private organization started putting on a tournament under the name WNIT. That tournament also still exists but is now third-tier behind the NCAA tourney and the net WBIT. That tournament has some pay-for-play elements. Teams are pretty much on their own when it comes to costs. [/QUOTE]
