[QUOTE="Illini2010-11, post: 2058663, member: 748820"] Is there an enforcement mechanism for the B1G, B12, and Big East here? This tourney is extremely late in the year for "mediocre" teams. With the way the portal works these days, I envision opt outs impacting the quality of the games (much like bowl season). I think this will ultimately flop after a year or two. The only plus is the location in Vegas, which might lead to some attendance; otherwise, it feels dumb. I would much rather have an expansion of up to 8 teams to the NCAA Tourney compared to this (for two to three play in games in each region). [/QUOTE]
