What to know about each team:

ESTU: Under second-year head coach Steve Forbes, ETSU snapped its six-year tourney drought and went 27-7 this season. Forbes has won everywhere he’s been, including Northwest Florida. Don’t be surprised when he works some magic with his talented, veteran team on the big stage. 

Florida: Mike White and his staff have made four straight NIT appearances, building to this moment of breakthrough with the Gators. Florida has overcome a season of injury issues (best big man John Egbunu out for the year) to get here, ready to ride veteran guard Kasey Hill and a versatile rotation into the tournament.
