    Top 64 (8-eight team sections) in tier one. Balance in tier 2. Think NIT hoops tourney.

      So if you had 8 teams in a section, the top 4 played-off to see who goes to tier 1 tourney, and bottom 4 seeds played sectionals to see who represented in tier 2?

        Kinda. Eight regions, each one seeded 1-20 (or how ever many teams there were). Top 8 were tier 1 & balance were tier 2.

          Wasn't there also a small school provision? My freshman year of high school, we were the runners up in Tier II, having a 1-20-1 record, we hit a hot streak and made an even bigger joke of the new tournament.

          2012 Article from the Pioneer Press about the failed tourney.

                  I was wondering, how long has it been since the Gophers won both the regular season and conference playoff championships in the same year?

                        Thanks Happy. If my math is correct that makes 2 out of the last 3. Not bad. Now let's put an exclamation point on the regular season this evening!

                            I am extremely upset that we may not see #5 in a Gopher's uniform the remainder of the season. Obviously I hope I'm wrong, but it does not look good, at all.

                              Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                                When seeing how he went into the boards and his immediate reaction I knew it was lower body and something very serious (I guessed ACL). So disappointing that it happened, especially in what was a pretty insignificant game. I sure hope Glover is ready to step in and play well in whatever role they give him.
