    In response to HARVARDDADGRAD

I appreciate how you feel and how disappointed it must be not to have played the deciding game on a neutral court. Both teams are good, not great, hard nosed teams that you could flip a coin as to who would best represent the IL. Obviously, Yale and Cornell did not deserve the opportunity but fortunately, they were trounced in the semi-finals of the IvyMadness absurdity.

I do have great empathy for the fans and more importantly, the players who will be NIT bound. They deserve better.

The outcome may well have been the same if played on a neutral court but we will never know.

Harvard was classy as to how they handled the situation and I would not be the least bit surprised if they come back with vengeance next year. Coach Donahue and Penn players are to be respected as well.
