I think you missed my point or I wasn’t clear. Every mid major conference gets two bids to the NCAA tournament. The NIT can have the P6 leftovers they desire. The CBI will continue to be what it is.What’s the CBI? I’m sure the P6 are glad to hear that you’ve accepted the fact that we don’t belong and will gladly accept whatever tournament we can get invited to. Keep spreading the message they want you to spread. Accept less mid majors because you deserve less. You don’t belong in the NCAA or the NIT - but we’ve got a home for you in the CBI.
I’m okay with an expansion I suppose. I haven’t given it much thought. I just think your last sentence or two really just gets at what the P6 wants…
You expand the tournament and don’t put parameters in place you will simply open the door for all those P6 schools that made the NIT to make the actual tournament. Then we can have the NIT and CBI for everyone else. You know… you keep accepting bids and celebrating lesser tournaments you’re sort of just giving the P6 exactly what they want. I can sleep well at night - I won’t ever fall into that trap.
I'm curious how the math works on an expanded tournament. You don't get more TV revenue as it's locked in for another decade I think, so tournament units essentially lose 33% of their value by jumping 32 teams.
FAU pulling back into it as they're hitting 3s this half so far.
Tyreke is struggling on offense. He’s giving them good effort on defense but he’s forcing the action on the offensive end.

He deserved that body check in the lane a few possessions ago. They aren't giving Tennessee any calls.
Agreed. Those moments used to be when Key shined, though.
Who gets the 32 byes?
Why relegate Mid-majors to the CBI? Plus, as it's NOT owned by the NCAA; hard to relegate teams to it
FAU out hustling Tennessee and opening a lead.
The one thing I think you missed is that any team from any conference must have a .500 conference record or better to play in the NCAA tournament. That way you don’t get an 8-10 SEC record team like Mississippi State in the tournament like happened this year.

I mean those are your own parameters - I love it. I didn’t miss it. The NCAA and P6 will never allow it to happen. So I’m sort of just ignoring it.
You set these very reasonable parameters and then say but just give us the NIT and CBI for everyone else. Why do we need additional tournaments if we keep expanding the field? Why do we need additional tournaments in the first place?
Owls gonna fly away with this game
And if in a crazy season, what if you don't HAVE the 96 "eligible teams"? Look at the fecal pile that the FBS bowl season has become...
what happens if you only have 88 eligible teams?
tough to beat teams when you score 55pts a game
Here I did it for you… When you know. You know.

Key has had a miserable shooting % the entire year
That's a pretty cool moment for that kid, too since he is from Vegas and I'm sure his family and friends were rolling deep.
That was nothin but a variation of the Odum Mahurin play.
