HappeningHoops.com CBI/CIT Bracketology Number 11 March 6th 2020

By: Ethan Hennessy

Selection Sunday is just over a week away, and the CBI and CIT fields are starting to take shape. If you are unfamiliar with my work. Hello I am Ethan Hennessy I am a senior at Valparaiso University originally from Columbia Maryland. I am a Valpo and Loyola MD fan. I am the founder of the Happening Hoops Media brand, and I am most well known for my CBI and CIT bracketology predictions.

In 2018 I correctly predicted: 17/20 CIT teams and 9/16 CBI teams for a 72% success rate.

In 2019 I correctly predicted 26/26 CIT teams and 13/16 CBI teams for a 93% success rate.
