Message: [QUOTE="KnightBridgeAZ, post: 4438392, member: 591"] Although, once again . . . Last year Arizona went to a destination tournament, where they played Vanderbilt, Rutgers and DePaul. Not the best competition (especially last year) but the choice is not 100% yours when you go to a destination tournament. Next year, Arizona will again go to a destination tournament (it was in the article). They will hopefully get a decent slate of opponents. I believe there is (or was) a rule about how frequently you could do the destination tourneys. But I don't think most schools do one every year. And in the end, they are dependent on invitations. I always use (as an example of scheduling issues) a few years back Arizona was setting up a game at DePaul and to make the trip worthwhile they signed up a visit to Chicago State, which was awful, to make the trip "worthwhile" (2 games). In the end, DePaul withdrew their offer to play and Arizona made a trip only to play Chicago State at their home. Waste of money. [/QUOTE]
