    Cancelling Tournament
    Biggest sham. Should have just shorten the tournament or only broadcasted the Final 4. Best sporting event of the year gone because of some bs virus.

        Is ESPN firing all the guys that were making prediction on who gets in and who is out of the brackets? These guys have no jobs now.

            Nobody has jobs in the Sports industry anymore.. I just cancelled my ESPN+ and all my sports packages on Amazon and Directv.

              Saw something about how the committee looked at shortening the tournament to 16 teams. Should have just went with that.

                  I read a thing on espn that they considered a smaller tournament

                  I think it still needed time tho and just no way w the students

                    16 team tourney would be cool, but not fair to smaller schools that earned auto bids and not a top 16 team

                      Agree

                      That’s like the whole point of this tourney some small school makes final four every year almost

                          Even if he was in charge he couldn’t make this go

                          Students w no nba future could skip the tourney anyway

                          No incentive

                              Would have been played from a Thursday thru Monday, 5 straight days. Higher seeds would have played Thursday early and gotten a bit more rest, but to make the Final on Monday a team would play 5 consecutive days. Would have been great TV!
