BIG 10 Tournament

Why is this tournament being played the same time as the men, a week early?  Seems to make absolutely no sense to me, when they could have televised the entire thing next week on BTN.  Also, why make the women compact their schedule for no logical reason?  Seems so dumb that there has to be a logical reason.  Anyone know what it is?

The women did not compact anything.  This is the same way it has been done for years.  It's the men who had to compact their schedule and play the tournament a week early

Should have moved it this year and it would have allowed the women to not have to compact schedule this year.  More importantly, the thing could have been televised on BTN and more heavily attended by fans of both womens and mens Big Ten basketball.  
Yeah tv is going to suck this year. Unless you have BTN2GO

The women's tournament is not draw a big crowd. No matter how you would do it.

On the Big 10 website it says that the games may be televised on “Regional Sport Networks” and it says to check your local listings.  I wonder if there are any RSN’s that will televise our games??

I was checking it out last night and didn't see anything show up. So who knows, The big 10 sure screwed up this. Have the men's tounry. at the same time as the women.

Makes no sense to run them at the same time.  What better chance to showcase your conference?  At least, the Husker men and women games, are at different times. :)
