This is an absolute game changer---it allows the Ivy season to incorporate January and allows for an earlier tournament, which permits both an early higher seed home game or a neutral site tournament which doesn't go up against the majors. It should help seeding a bit since the NCAA doesn't have to pre-slot the Ivy team (I know they denied it but there is no way that Penn would have been a 16 unless pre-slotted there). It also won't go up against Ivy Spring Breaks anymore if moved up a week.
