On second thought, it soon became obvious to me that the Atlantic-10 and its men's champions are just too good to be mentioned alongside Gonzaga and three Ivy entries - how could I ever be so slow to figure that one out!?

You are actually correct, you finally got one right after years and years of posting on here, congrats. The A10 is a high major conference and therefore its' teams are not eligible for this poll. Your fascination with the Dukes is quite extraordinary.

Do you have a source for your assertion that rather A10 is considered High Major and not mid major? This site considers it to be a mid major:

You are correct. Found the definition in the poll.

Thank you for confirming. Although not clearly defined, for the most part, mid-majors are defined as 1 bid leagues (Gonzaga's longtime national profile notwithstanding).
