Stunned seems to be the favorite word around UW

HUSKIES

The lack of an NCAA bid didn’t surprise anyone. Washington just didn’t earn it. But just about everyone expected UW to be headed to the NIT. People were just debating if the Huskies would get a home game.

They didn’t. Or an away game for that matter.

Snubbed by the NIT? Now that’s got to hurt.

It does, as this Times story , this one in the News Tribune, this Everett story and the P-I’s piece all show. There is also an Art Thiel column about the passing over.

• Lost in the hoopla about Washington’s debacle was the news Santa Clara didn’t receive an NIT invite either. That means Dick Davey’s career at SC is over.
