Roller coaster Season not over, expect a CIT/CBI bid

As disappointing as this season may be to most Mason fans, I wouldn't turn my nose up to the thought of these guys playing in the CIT or CBI tournaments. For a young team like this any extra games for them to play together is a good thing. Look at it as a glorified scrimmage or extra practice sessions. There are rumors floating around on Facebook and Twitter that Mason will be hosting a College Insider Tournament game on Tuesday March 16th. As long as they don't put a CIT banner in the Patriot Center I don't have a problem with this. I'm still trying to confirm this information so stay tuned.

UPDATE: Rumor is confirmed via the Washington Post from Eric Prisbell's bracketology blog "The 65"

"George Mason to appear in CIT. Get excited, Fairfax."

"Mason will host first-round game on Tuesday. If it wins, it will hit the road because the circus is coming to Patriot Center."

And now GoMason.com is reporting it as well. Opponent will be announced this Sunday.
