In response to palestra38
If MRJames is correct and the game is moved from the Palestra next year, it would make one wonder if the intent of the IL tournament was to showcase the league if it is moved to a less prestigious location. If the IL Tournament stays at the Palestra, no current AD/Head Coach/ or Administrator should complain regarding the fairness issue as they voted for it and that includes Coach Henderson and the Princeton AD -- fans can obviously legitimately complain about the fairness issue.
Conversely, if they move the tournament next year to Jadwin, Boston, Mohegan Sun or God knows where, Penn should never complain if they win the regular season and then lose on someone else's home court or another location. Finally, if Brown/Columbia or someone else wins the IL regular season and then loses at somebody else's location, you would think that there should be silence from the universities.
In all likelihood, some fans will be ticked off no matter what happens this year, next year or beyond.
Going into this year, there are 4 possibly 5 or 6 teams that could win the IL regular season but we will find out who gets the NCAA bid within 24 hours in March -- simply brilliant.
