IvyMadness proponents seem to fall into several caterogies:
1. Well intended -- some supporters who believed mistakenly that the IL was going to be a 2 bid league back in 2016 and prior to.
2. Dartmouth, Cornell and Browns of the world who believe that they have a competitive disadvantage in recruiting players especially for some tough weather places, Ithaca and Hanover.
3. Others from historically great basketball programs that have run into some tough times prior to 2016 and simply wanted a 2nd bite of the apple by having a chance to go to the Big Dance -- no matter how; right or wrong.
The Kool Aid drinking comes from one of these sources but as our friend way up North stated -- we won/you lost.
