I think SIU has an outside chance if they play Sunday.

Yes. Reports out of Peoria are that Bradley has turned them both down--Wardle will take his 20-win season and go sell that to recruits starting tomorrow. We'll see whether that holds up if one of those tourneys offers BU a home date against a good name, but as of now it looks like BU has said no.

There haven't been any "good names" in either tournament in years.

Reports of this are being exaggerated. Wardle appears to have possibly softened his stance about this. Perhaps the decision is being put to the players?

Seems to me it would make much more sense for the administration and coaching staff to make such a decision...not the players.

As for Drake, Niko was quoted as saying given the choice he would leave it up to the players.
