[NU Sports] Not the refs

[Mike Nolan]

> Yes as I have mentioned many times relying on the trey is risky business. Unfortunately we missed quite a few open treys in the OT, particularly in the closing minute .  Our 3 point shooting probably got us to the NIT, but in the end it knocked us out. This is not a criticism per se ,just confirming my beliefs that significant efforts need to be made on getting a few big men to enable us to have an inside game

Sadly, the world is not overrun with big 18 and 19 year old men 
who can actually play the game, much less meet Northwestern's 
academic standards.

And there are a few hundred other schools out there who are also,
as the Marines ads say, looking for a few good [big] men.

I wonder if the Cats' NIT run, even though too short, is likely to have 
any impact on recruiting?
