After speculation over the last few days that it might announce an NCAA tournament bracket despite this year’s event being canceled, the NCAA announced Sunday that it will not release a bracket.
Here is the full statement from Dan Gavitt, the NCAA’s senior vice president of basketball:
The world is experiencing a challenging health crisis with the coronavirus pandemic. It is an unsettling and concerning time in our history. For those of us who love and treasure college basketball, it has resulted in the cancellation of NCAA basketball championships and an empty month that otherwise would be filled with tremendous excitement.
