This plan to fix one-bid conference tourneys might be radical, but it's also logical

[Alan Bykowski, "brewcity77"]

If the conference doesn't care if the conference champ goes to the tourney or not, I'm not sure why Gary Parrish cares. Most of the perennial one bid leagues are one and done anyway.

Having your best team in increases your league's exposure, the chance to earn tournament shares that provide revenue for the entire league, and give the entire country the chance to see the best possible teams compete in the tournament. Milwaukee wasn't going to be that Cinderella Sweet 16 story from a Dayton 16 seed game, but Oakland or Valparaiso from a 13 or 14 might have been. Better for the Horizon, better for the quality of competition in the NCAA Tournament as a whole.
