I'd be hard pressed to include them, despite their 25-5 record. For one thing, they really didn't have any "quality" wins over highly ranked teams. For another, they're only currently ranked as #77 in RPI. And, since they lost in the very first round of their conference tournament where they were the top seed, that means they lost to the bottom seed in a relatively weak conference. I'd say, "Butler, pack your bags for the NIT!"... KJC
