Drake is in the Cayman Islands Classic

Also, that UIC tournament might be the worst MTE field I've ever seen. Woof. You could win the thing and hurt your numbers.

Where are you seeing the field? I can’t seem to find info on it.

I mean there aren't any world beaters but this field could be a lot worse. Five teams in the top 200 last year. If UIC went 2-1 in this tournament it would be a phenomenal result as they look to improve as a program.

The Paradise Jam is usually a pretty good tournament with at least a couple of Power 6 teams. Does anyone know why there are no Power 6 teams this year?

Power 6 teams are staying away from those type of events. A fair amount are doing their own thing.

Another way for the Power 6 to keep their NET rating higher and non-Power 6 NET rating lower. Some of the MTE’s are going to two divisions/groups. One group of four being P6 & one group of four being non-P6. And only the group of four play each other. Thus eliminating the P6 playing non-P6

They never ended up with a decent TV deal and are now on Flo. Programs want to go where there's money and they can be seen. That tournament is dying a slow death.
