This has been a good year for Golden Knight basketball. UCF doesn't exactly have a robust tournament history, since moving up to Division I. This is their second-ever invitation to the NIT; the first was in 2012. Their glory days were in the late '70s/early '80s when Coach Torchy Clark tore it up in the Sunshine State Conference, advancing to the DII Final Four in 1978.

Yeah, I just stare at my desk, but it looks like I'm working .I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work. Peter Gibbons
