The coaches had to vote on it last spring. Since this year it IS A DRAW then the majority of the coaches must have decided to draw.

Hazard also did not forfeit any games to PCC this year. If they would have had to play they would have, so PCC would have voted for a draw system so they didn't lose a game on their schedule. Hazard would also not want to lose a game they would have to forfeit. So that's two votes and Buckhorn would vote any way PCC would want them too. This way, at best, there would be 3 votes for a draw system.

This is half theory, Hazard could have voted for a seeded system but I don't see why they would since it would only make them play PCC earlier due to their forfeit. Also, Letcher would gain nothing from a draw and probably voted for a seeded tournament. If Jackson City voted, it wouldn't have mattered but I would say they would want a draw to hopefully get Hazard or the Horn.
