NIT Spells West Virginia Wrong

This comes from msn.com

NIT title T-shirts are almost heavun


CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - West Virginia may have won the National Invitation Tournament, but the Mountaineers' commemorative T-shirts are less than championship material.


West Virginia's Frank Young and Rob Summers were happy with their NIT trophy. The same can't be said for their championship t-shirts. (Frank Franklin II / Associated Press)

They contain a misspelling.

The "West Virginia" printed on the shirts players wore after winning the NIT title with a 78-73 victory over Clemson on Thursday night is missing the last "i" in "Virginia."

WVU sports information director Shelly Poe said the NIT printed the shirts.

Calls to tournament officials were not immediately returned Friday.

West Virginia coach John Beilein also could not be reached for comment. He and the team were on their way back to West Virginia on Friday after winning their first NIT title in 65 years.

And that is in New York. And everyone makes fun of Southerners lack of intelligence.

By the way heavun was spelled that way in the regular article to poke fun at the mispelling of Virginia. That is not a typo on my part.
