I know many will probably think this is a bad idea, but the MVC just doesn't have a common thinking.

Illinois State
Western Illinois
Eastern Illinois
Southern Illinois
Northern Iowa
Missouri State
SE Missouri State
Indiana State
Murray State

It's far from perfect, and I'm not really sure I would support this idea, but it's just a thought.

I would not support this at all.

I agree it weakens both groups.

From 2009 til now we are the only current school in the MVC to win St Louis besides Northern Iowa. Going all the way back to 1999, UNI (5), INST (2), SIU (1), and Drake (1) are the only tournament champions of the remaining members. In Illinois State's defense they have made it to Sunday 5 times in that stretch as well, but haven't won the thing since 1998, when Dan Muller was actually playing.
Wichita State fans act like they're so much better than everyone, but they've only won St Louis twice in the past 29 years. For a school that is so much better than everyone in the Valley I would have expected that number to be a bit better than 2, but what do I know.
As far as public vs. private is concerned (only counting the current 9 members) public schools have won 18 tournament championships, while the privates have only won 3, since the tournament began. Two of those were by Bradley.
