Is the NCAA basketball tournament big enough for you? Could you envision it larger, with even more basketball? I’m a bit torn on the matter myself, but clearly it’s something we need to be paying attention to, because major-conference commissioners are talking about it.
And if those guys are in agreement on something, there’s a serious chance of that something happening. ACC commish Jim Phillips voiced his support for postseason tournament expansion last week, not just in basketball, but in baseball and potentially other sports as well. The SEC’s Greg Sankey said he’s open to expanding the basketball tournament, and the Big Ten’s Kevin Warren is as well.
