Is the Big Ten just bragging about how poorly they located the tournament with this sign?

I thought about this sign when I saw one for the women in Indy downtown today.

Maybe I’m taking the sign too literally but the B1G needs to hire a geography guy too. College Park, MD looks nearly in line with Ann Arbor and East Lansing. And Iowa City and Lincoln look like they are in completely different regions from each other

I'm guessing Big East fans are trolling the sign.

Honestly, I don't think Maryland is worthy of a tournament berth even if they made it to the finals.  And I don't think they'd get a berth if they did somehow get that far.

At some point I think losses are losses, no matter how small...  
Been beating this point to death. A shell of what we could have been, and even when healthy, looked lost at times. 
If we can keep all the underclassmen, with the transfer, and what is coming in, we should be a much better team next year. 
Fairly dominant.

Yeah, I'm sure the Creighton fans are all over it.

I know the Terps are used to being upper echelon, but take this season for what it's worth - 7 straight tourney years, one minor step back this season (NIT), let the kids get some experience and I think they will be very good again next year.

Sounds about the same as Maryland's opponent tomorrow. I don't know about "dominant" though. MSU is more of that.

LoL, that is sad but to be fair I don't think attendance for the 12/13 and 11/14 games has ever been very good.  I'll report back Friday evening what the crowd looks like for the tOSU vs NU/PSU and PU vs IU/RU/MN games.
