Bracket

If a bracket cannot be completed until the championship game, the tournament doesn't use a bracket. It's misleading to suggest otherwise. By filling in this bracket ex post facto, you suggest to future readers that the pairings would have worked out that way regardless of the winners, which is exactly wrong. I think some other graphical representation should be worked out, or perhaps none at all. MrArticleOne (talk) 02:59, 20 March 2014 (UTC)

True, they don't go directly off a bracket, but I don't see any harm in having one. We've obviously been able to keep it updated on previous years pages, it just takes a little attention to detail in moving things around but it can be done and gives it more of a tournament feel.

I don't think that creating a "tournament feel" is appropriate when it is not factual. A bracket-type graphical representation for this event is misleading. MrArticleOne (talk) 21:10, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

There is a bracket for every other CIT article that set matchups as they went. There are brackets for all the old NIT's that use to do it the same way. Why stop now? Bsuorangecrush (talk) 14:35, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

Well, I wasn't involved with editing those. I don't care for it, whether then or now. MrArticleOne (talk) 15:53, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

Well it doesn't really matter if you care for it or not. I get the argument that someone coming and looking could think "oh, had that team won they would have played that team" with that not being true, but they could also think "wait, why do the other ones have brackets and this one doesn't?" It doesn't matter to me that much I just feel that since the others have a bracket tho one should as well. Bsuorangecrush (talk) 16:38, 23 March 2014 (UTC)
