The bowl game I understand sitting out but sitting out the NIT where they could still compete for something doesn't sit well with me

Kids dont give a shite about winning anymore. They care about their Instagram and followers.

Winning the NIT is equivalent to Kyle Busch bragging about being the best driver in the XFinity series of NASCAR. Good for Gafford.

Good for him??? For screwing over his teammates? And basketball isn't like football, where the risk of a serious injury is MUCH higher. Boo on Gafford for this.

It's the NIT, the rest of the team doesn't give a shite about it anyway.
