    I would assume Robert Morris could try to rent Duquesne or Pitt's arenas if they wanted a larger venue.

    I'm guessing their coach wants it on campus. That game will be insane.

    Guessing not too many Kentucky fans pumped up to make that trip.

    UNC hosting W&M at Carmicheal in the 2010 NIT was easily one of the best experiences I've ever had at a UNC home game, fwiw.

    Not having the alma mater in the NCAA tournament sucked after winning it the year before, but getting to experience that was worth it.

    Also, the students planned to rush Rosemary Street instead of Franklin when UNC made the championship game, which would've been a cool once-in-a-blue-moon tradition. Unfortunately they lost, but people in Chapel Hill were definitely up for it.

    I'm sure they can squeeze in a few extra folding chairs.

    A few years back, Ohio State played an NIT home game at St. John Arena when Value City (or whatever it was called at the time) was booked for a musical event.

    Iowa played games in Cedar Rapids and Davenport during one of its NIT forays.

    Didn't someone play at LIU last year or the year before?

    And the game is going to be on ESPN.

    Robert Morris, enjoy your 15 minutes of fame.

    Illinois played at Stony Brook in 2010 due to Cirque du Soleil at their gym.
