could be the existence of the Ivy tournament helped each team land some pretty solid recruits over the past 2 years. You can't dismiss that logic just because you can't see it. The quality of recruiting is higher across the league and the visibility of the league tournament is probably part of that.
I have had dozens of people tell me they watched the IL championship game on ESPN, in many different cities away from the east coast.
The visibility of the league has never been higher nationally.
