A win tonight vs Cleveland St puts them in the WNIT Finals.

Congrats to UB. The WNIT beginning last year is now the 3rd post season women’s tourney behind the NCAA tourney and the WBIT which is sponsored by the NCAA. WBIT had Minnesota as champion and featured teams like Florida, Virginia Tech, Villanova, Gonzaga, and others. WNIT got leftovers like Tarleton State, Campbell, So Indiana, Longwood, Western Illinois etc.

There's pride in any national tournament. I can only imagine how the mood would have changed if NU or Bona had the type of seasons that could qualify them for the WNIT. I'll bet Alumni Arena will get a great crowd because at least one of WNY sports team is on the cusp of winning SOMETHING.

Go Bulls!!

Didn't the Bona men qualify for the men's NIT?

Yeah. Men’s NIT is still the second tourney. Was just pointing out that the WNIT was more like the CBI than the men’s NIT with the creation of the 32 team and NCAA run WBIT. I believe that all the teams in the WBIT won at least 20 games. The WNIT had five teams with losing records and included teams like Siena with a 17-15 record. Still nice to see UB win and a sold out arena. I would definitely put a banner up but I would be embarrassed to put a CBI banner in the rafters

So, how many weeks will it take for the UB Women’s coach to jump to a better program with more money.

Hate to say this, but Bona might have seen it's last NCAA tournament.

Really purp? Do you “hate” to say that? Other than the Big East schools not sure any small private school will do well in this new reality. Here is article about MAC payouts https://www.toledoblade.com/sports/college/2025/04/09/briggs-wonder-what-mac-basketball-players-are-getting-paid-we-found-out/stories/20250409124/

I sure do. Will Bona start each season with new players and end up going to the tournament? I don't think so.

The answer is less than 1! That’s how long it took for UB Women’s Coach to bolt to greener pastures after WNIT Championship. Less than1 week. Well, good for her. Arizona is lovely in many ways. And UB is left restarting their program. It’s a familiar story for lesser collegiate programs. If NU would ever make a Cinderella run, their coach would similarly flee.
