Is it fair when Syracuse was in the Big East final and the entire MSG was covered in Orange and Blue?
The Ivy League is not the Big East, or the Acc or the A-10, or certainly the NFL. For at least the short term, it is a one-bid league, which makes this tournament now do-or-die. For conferences with multiple participants in the NCAA virtually guaranteed, these tournaments are a spectacle without the urgency that will accompany the IL tournament. Holding it at the tired old, smelly barn in west Philly just because its old and storied just doesn't cut it. If it went to 3 teams, with top seed getting a bye, I MIGHT feel differently because #1 would get a major benefit from winning the 14-game tournament, even it ended up playing Penn in the final.
(Ok I admit that I am a big fan of the Palestra, have dragged my wife and kids there to experience it and have cherished memories going there as a child to wathc P-P in double headers with LaSalle/Temple/St. Joes. But it just isn't right for this purpose)
