Here's a depressing March Madness story. The Illini are apparently interested in playing in a new tourney this March, assuming they are not invited to the NCAA or NIT. It's called the College Basketball Invitational Tourney, and most likely includes 16 teams with losing records that want to play basketball in March. I'm not sure if this tourney is to give the young guys more experience or a motivating factor for the players to get back above a .500 record, so they have a shot at the NIT.
Here's the official website for the CBI.

Maybe they could get in the U of I intramural tournament at IMPE. I hear that the Delta Sigs got a decent team this year.
