The NCAA has started meeting with broadcasters to explore the media value of expanding the men’s basketball tournament field, industry sources say.

As part of that process, the group also is gauging the feasibility of moving the tournament from broadcast to cable.

64 to 96

This would be the worst sports business decision since the dawn of man (if there are sports being played professionally in other solar systems I would guess they are smarter than this too).

Next thing you know, the NCAA will discuss having basketball bowl games and ranking teams with a BCS-like system. I couldn't imagine a more idiotic group of people than the one that runs the NCAA.

I should have known the WSJ would be gunning to ruin the tourney.

"Go up to 128. I've thought that for several years. There's that many good teams, and it gives everybody one more game.

A) Making the tournament means something right now.

Every point that guy makes is idiocy
