    I did not realize they moved the first round to Friday/Saturday. So all have enough time to get the seven consecutive days of negative tests

    This is a joke. They need to vaccinate all players or cancel the tourney.

    The system is 100 percent rigged if Duke gets in.

    All the so called bracket experts said before ACC dropped out of the ACC tournament Duke needs at least one more and probably two more wins to get a bid.

    Then, out of the blue they get COVID.
    Could it be no COVID and used that as an excuse to save face.
    Now out of the blue Duke is cleared to play.
    Something is stinky here,

    And I am not a tin hat wearing conspiracist

    yes the non league games, give you time to work out the rotation for your team and when we have all the one and done kids, to me they need all the games they can get to settle into team players.....

    Dan Gavitt, NCAA senior vice president of men's basketball, has said that a team needs just five healthy players to play in an NCAA tournament game.
    The way it should be.

    Tourney needs Duke to improve ratings...

    Even with that, Duke still may be at home..

    I'm not so sure.

    I don't think anyone cares too much about Duke or ACC hoops as much as say in the 90's.
