In response to Glenflesk
The tournament organizers pretty much have to overhype it simply to pique interest in it. However, the sad reality is that it is a lower end tournament with a not-ready-for-prime-time array of teams, most of which if, should they make the NCAA Tournament, would be no higher than a #14 seed and, more likely, a #15 or #16 seed. The suspicion is that Penn probably was not offered much, if anything, regarding a choice of tournaments, primarily because of their recent pedigree, and took what Coach D thought was the best for his team. Then again, Florida in November is not too bad of a consolation prize.
