NCAA for sure, because then you can spout off useless stats like this:

Including 2017 up to last year - which is the 6 years the NCAA tabulates their "units" - the only three ACC schools to make the Tournament every year (no 2020, covid), are Duke, UNC and Virginia Tech. I'm chalking up the NIT this year to the normal upward growth phases of a basketball program - many NCAA appearances, and an occasional NIT season.

Winning it would be a nice consolation.

NIT Championships are memorable, NCAA first round exits are not**

NIT is completely irrelevant. Not even close.**
WildTurkE • 03/13/23 09:01 PM ET
Just like Bowl games.**

Yes and unlike bowl games, the schools don't get fleeced
