I thought we all agreed that they should invite the best teams? Take out Louisville, add Florida State then. If you expand to 16 you really water the field down.
Kentucky is not very good.
Soooo... how about that corona virus...?

So let me get this straight.....It looks like the perfect storm for grown males to say they might have the flu to go sit at home and watch march madness will no blowback from the boss-----and now they might not even play!!!!

It wouldn't hurt if there was something with all of this information on their website but most of this information is out there. Atleast for what we know of. It seems to keep changing though so maybe that's why they aren't going public with any statements other than updates on what we already know.
Yeah, I read that one earlier. Screw them for suggesting that. I am completely fine with them playing in front of nobody but cancelling it all together would be dump at this point. The risk/reward seems way in favor of playing it still and getting all of that advertising money. We're talking billions of dollars at stake because you don't want maybe 1500 people TOTAL traveling over the course of a few days. Then with each round the numbers of travelers gets smaller and smaller.
You are all over the place. I guess it is March, so Ku fans naturally act crazy.
We can do 8 to include some mid majors (Kansas, Gonzaga, Dayton) and also include the best teams.
If they cancel the tournament I will kill myself. Ball is in your court, NCAA.
Calling Kansas a mid major but implying Baylor is not is dumber than anything I've ever said on this board and I average 17 really dumb posts per day.
Fine, Baylor can be a mid major too. Whatever helps you KU guys sleep at night. I mean, there are mid majors with more titles than KU. Just trying to be fair here.
Damn...you guys are shameless in seeking advantages.
Need every 5 star recruit, every call, every no-call, the perfect tourney draw and region, and now you want to disqualify teams that are better than yours. Tsk.
Not when they were winning those titles. They were in the best conference when they were winning and were a top 5 program.
They probably are today though.
I've got his NCAA tournament thing settled. Invite the P5 Conference champs(reg season or tournament champs; conference decides) then the best 5 mid majors.
Final four and championship game is a best of 3. This is totally fair and could even exclude my team.

Well, their league usually has as many ranked teams and tourney teams as the SEC, so....yeah, probably.
So the best ever is a mid major? I'll take it.
(insert inflated numbers retort below)
I don't know... 10 percent of students from abroad, 75 percent from out of state, roughly 25% Asian... and all of the students coming back from spring break...? It might be nothing, but you also don't want to be the school that ends up being the center of an outbreak, you know?
I'd have to assume that Duke has some pretty capable medical minds to consult with...
...and decided they aren't smart enough to figure out a safe way to hold classes like everyone else.
...at a much smaller University.
What student in their right mind would go home on vacation to a highly infected area......moreso what parent would allow them to come back into danger? As a student I would be all in for cancelled classes....until I get the bill for my student loans
The one NCAAT,who doesn't have a clear frontrunner, is going to end up being cancelled. It's 2013 all over with it being a down year and no winner.
Spring break at Duke began March 6. If you finished up early, maybe March 3 or something. I think it would be pretty easy for someone to think "Eh, it's not that big a deal" at that point, or even "Man, I already paid for my plane ticket, I'm sure it will be fine," enough so that someone might have gone home? And I think the desire to be with family might overwhelm the idea of being infected, especially if you think this is just a media thing or whathaveyou.
Let me know when they've cancelled something that more than three people will attend and/or watch.
I think I speak for all of us when I say, I’m not sure how life can go on without the CBI at the end of the season
Corona virus conference cancelled....due to the corona virus

Ah, the spring break issue. Got it. That actually makes sense considering the amount of travel kids do now. The rest of this stuff doesn't, to me. Like shutting off the different tournaments from fans. I think all that is overblown and the hysteria from the media is just making it worse.
God, it's going to be like playing every game at UT.
Of course a UNc fan wants this. No worries, it will still count as a miss for Roy and UNc.
