A dangerous trend

You will notice that the vast majority of the teams participating in the Pay-to-Play tournaments, and even in the NIT, are non-money conference teams. I view this as a dangerous trend. I understand why those teams might not want to play for a less-than-glittering prize. However, we recently came far too close for comfort to having the Money Five conferences form a Super Division that shuts out the little guys. If the only teams that participate in the "other" tournament are the little guys, then that will just be one more argument for the big guys to "let them have their own tournament, since they in essence are already doing it."
