PROVO — It’s been 17 long years since BYU has won a conference tournament championship.

Unless the Cougars go on an improbable run, end that dubious drought and capture the tournament title, they likely will be headed to the National Invitation Tournament for the third consecutive season.

No doubt, BYU has a difficult draw in the quarterfinals of the West Coast Conference Tournament at Orleans Arena in Las Vegas this weekend.
