This appears aimed directly at conferences like the Big Sky.

Re: NIT Changes will Hurt BSC?
Looks like they want to turn the NIT into a tournament for power conference also-rans. That's fine I guess though not something I'll have any interest in watching, hopefully one of the other postseason tournaments would pick up any small-conference teams who are excluded from the NIT by this.
