This was McCarthy 's first full season as head coach ; he had been promoted in the middle of the previous season , following the sudden resignation of Gene Visscher in late January . The Wildcats were regular season co-champions with Idaho State and Boise State , and the league champion hosted the new conference tournament . The seeding of the three co-champions for the four-team bracket was done by a random draw in late February , conducted via a Saturday night conference telephone call by commissioner John Roning from Moscow , Idaho . Weber was drawn as the top seed , which included the right to host at Wildcat Gym in Ogden . At this time , both Weber and Boise still played in small gymnasiums , while ISU 's Minidome had more than double the seating capacity of the others
