Tonight: NIT, CBI, play-in game. Woo!!

If you're looking for online resources to consult before filling out your men's NCAA Tournament bracket, MSNBC's "Beyond the Arc" blog has an incredibly thorough roundup.

Incidentally, don't forget, if you want to enter my NIT Pool, you have exactly one hour left to do so! That's because the first game of the NIT, #7-seed Stephen F. Austin at #2-seed UMass, tips off at 6:00 PM EDT, kicking off a full evening of scintillating hoops action that also includes the NCAA play-in game (7:30 PM on ESPN) and the first four games of the CBI. Don't pretend like you're not excited.

P.S. No promsies about exactly when I'll get everybody's NIT Pool picks online (and the initial standings, etc.), but I'll try to do it sometime tonight.
