Let's see how this one plays out - both at site and on TV. My feeling is that it's going to be great. Jadwin is the closest competition to The Palestra for an on-campus tournament. The Palestra seats 2,000 more than Jadwin, is in a city (more hotels, transportation, dining, bars), and looks far better. The others aren't big enough to host a tournament. Options are: 1) Host all games at home court of better seed. Only works if you resign yourself to the Ivy tournament never growing. Would not work well when we go to an 8 team tournament. 2) Have only the final at The Palestra. Would make the years in which Dartmouth hosts a semi difficult enough to mean a Friday-Sunday tournament. Would work as poorly as option 1) in a 8 team tournament. 3) Off-site tournament. What's the best we can do - Bridgeport? Not so great a place to celebrate after your team's victory in the semis. 4) Give up on idea on tournament. 5) The Palestra until better alternatives open up (if ever). Let's reassess after the tournament. I think some of you are making a mountain over a molehill. |
