We can sit here and debate all we want and come up with different plans but in the end the NCAA isn't going to do a damn thing. It's their tournament...
They aren't going to spend a penny more than they already do and they don't care about a level that barely gets a blip in the media.
It's going to stay regional, the money saved on not having to fly teams in the East justifies the NCAA in keeping it they way they do and giving us our allotted slots.
I bet in their eyes, if you don't like it, you have choices.
Then you have conferences that have literally no reason to give up what access they have to appease a vocal minority. I know how that feels being on the vocal minority end.
Unless there is more money and the haves can talk the have nots to give up their chances...what you see is what you are getting for the time being.

By taking a stance that a majority of the posters don't agree with and continuing to engage? It's the same thing Skip Bayless does, gets his watchers so frustrated with him that they take to social media and drive engagement. I guess every forum needs it's Skip Bayless to drive conversation!! And just like with Skip, I can't tell if you actually believe everything you say, or if you are picking some of your points solely to drive engagement!! So, thanks Skip!

But good luck getting the NE10, Pee Sack, MEC, GMAC, CIAA, SAC and the SIAC to give up potential playoff bids and more importantly their hosting chances through four rounds in the current format so certain area of the D2 map can get what they want and dominate even more. More power to you if you can sell that. I can’t imagine they would view it as an improvement but it’s worth a try right?Last edited by IUPNation; 03-03-2023, 07:44 AM.

This is part of why a compromise is going to be needed. We can talk about ideal brackets all we want, but ultimately these things don't generally get completely revamped. It's always incremental changes.
