Michigan wins the mens Big Ten Tourney

Post by 1987chieftains »

Since no one has posted it....... Michigan wins the Big Ten tourney for the 2nd year in a row. Knocking off 2 top 10 teams #2 Michigan State
(2nd time this year) and #8 Purdue to do so. Also Michigan's Mo Wagner takes the tourney MVP.

Why was the Big Tournament a Week early this year? Usually starts this week and ends Selection Sunday.

Not sure on why Jim Delany and company picked this week.

It was because Delany was hellbent on having it in MSG and scheduling wouldn't allow it this week because that's when the Big East tournament is being played and they have played it there for 35 years, so the BIG had to take a back seat.

Play it in Chicago or Indy and be done with it.

Yeah, it's always been played in Chicago and Indy, and that's where it belongs. Last year they played in DC, I don't like it being played up Northeast.
