I would imagine that Weisz and Cook would prefer to win the IL Tournament so that they can participate at the Big Dance if they knew that it was an either or although I suspect that they will give it their all to win both. They may have a different perspective in 20 years when they return the campus and see a IL regular season banner vs. a IL tournament banner if it turns out that way.
I suspect that the accomplishment of winning a 14 game tournament vs. a 2 game less than 24 hour tournament will be looked upon fondly by the IL regular season champ down the road.
Hopefully, the winner of this year's regular season; whoever that may be, also wins the inaugural tournament from my perspective.
