Drake just announced it will host a CIT game Monday at 1:00 PM. Game will be nationally televised on CBS Sports Network.
While the official announcement has not revealed an opponent, the women's tournament radio said it would be Abilene Christian.
Most intriguing thing: Free admission.

It's official: BU has turned down the CBI and CIT. Wardle is off to recruit. See you all next season.

No Valley Teams were accepted to the NIT. There are also no Valley teams in the CBI.
Loyola-Chicago in the NCAA & Drake in the CIT are the Valley's lone two postseason plays this year.

There is a nice discussion on the Peoria Journal Star Board about the quality of the CIT/CBI tournaments being terrible this year. Not many good names at all in those tournaments. Especially when you compare the fields to the teams that Bradley was playing in those tournaments about 5-10 years ago. I'm fine with Bradley turning down the invite so Wardle can go recruit.
