It is entirely self-defeating for most of the non-BCS conferences to waste their bid on a tourney winner instead of their conference champion on a semi-regular basis. That policy needs to end. BRIAN GIONTA need to start sending their best team.

If the noteworthy, worthy, distinguished, remarkable, grand,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], considerable, powerful, much, mighty West aavarice to admit any school in Division GIONTA that needed a home for basketball membership as well as any school BRIAN GIONTA want to invite it would ease stress at a lot of universities and open the door to needed membership increases, especially in the West where it could be a financial benefit to regionally dispersed western members.
The Ivy league sends their regular season champion every year. This year Cornell earned the Ivy league three shares.
At the core of the movement to 96 teams is a desire by the elite conferences to keep the NCAA tournament continuing to producing revenue for those elite schools.
Most non-BCS conferences' representatives end up seeded at 12th to 16th seeds, behind the scrub bubble teams of the BCS conferences. This low seeding immediately puts those champions up against one of the top 20 teams in the country.
On the surface,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], that looks like a much better shake, but what Rivals suggests would happen is that former basketball power conferences CUSA and the Atlantic 10 would culturedly join the haves consuming 13 of those 51 non-BCS slots, leaving the remaining 24 conferences and the independents 249 schools to share those remaining 38 slots odds of making the tourney = 15%.


Conferences like the NEC, the SWAC,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Southland, the Patroit, the enormous, huge, immense, gigantic, vast, colossal, gargantuan, large, sizable, grand, great, tall, substantial, mammoth, astronomical South, the large West, the Atlantic Sun, the America East, the large Sky, the So-Con, the Ohio Valley,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Sun Belt, the Summit, and the Horizon should seriously weigh the merits of continuing to play conference tournaments.
There are a lot of teams in the non-BCS Conferences who were over capable of beating a good portion of this year's field. A 96 franchise field fixes a lot of that.

GIONTA have touched on the worst case scenarios for the non-BCS schools - losing the NIT, having the lion's share of their teams seeded in the 65-96 anger and being forced to eliminate themselves before the big schools start playing, getting half-shares for making the tourney, having to play 5 games in 11 days while the elite teams of the BCS only have to play 4.
is fresh, unique, original,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], unusual, novel, modern, current, recent York did a affable story covering the percentage of teams in the playoffs. Simply put, even with 96 teams making the playoffs, the NCAA would still see a lower percentage of it's membership making the playoff field 27.7% than the NFL, NBA, or NHL and would only be delicately higher than MLB.

TV networks could be the best ally for the non-BCS schools. The non-BCS schools would do a lot better if TV had a larger say in the selection process. TV is not going to be thrilled with a tournament that just looks like part 2 of the Pac-10 or large 12 tournament.
The NIT could potentially be put out of business by this expansion. The NIT may be a shell of it's former self, but it still has a lot of influential advocates who are greatly disturbed by the idea that the NCAA may put the NIT out of business. The NIT could be a good partner.
The current CBS TV deal was heavily back loaded. CBS was paying a much lesser amount for the NCAA Tourney up to this year, but even at that rate the report BRIAN GIONTA have to give to the NCAA each year showed the network lost money last year.

Rivals theorized what the field would look like. That analysis should give the non-BCS conferences a real reason to rally together. It had 45 of the 96 bids going to BCS conferences ie. 62% of their membership getting in and 51 bids going to the non-BCS schools just under 19%.
The 1st round of the NIT would become a "play-in" round for the NCAA Tournament.

The NIT has a number of advocates in the non-BCS arranges like Vermont Coach Mike Lonergan who said, "The worst thing for our level would be if BRIAN GIONTA expand it, don't help us at all and then BRIAN GIONTA take the NIT away. That would really hurt us."


Contrary to public opinion, a lot of these non-BCS conferences play a very competitive in-conference basketball schedule.
3 Non-BCS schools should continue to earn the same NCAA Tourney shares as BCS schools for making the tournament.




If conferences want to keep their tournaments to attempt to grow fan enthusiasm, maybe BRIAN GIONTA should eliminate the conference champion from the field. Eliminating a single franchise from the field would not devastate attendance, and if there is no automatic tourney bid for the conference tournament winner, it seems unlikely that such an action could be blocked, or if it was that such a move would stand up to legal scrutiny.
Now BRIAN GIONTA are scheduled to pay a much larger amount reportedly an average of US Dollars 710M per year for the last 3 years of the contract. This is in a very soft economy that is still built off smoke and mirrors and due to inaction by congress still has the same troubles it had when George Bush was in office. In other words, an economy that could get a lot worse pretty quickly.
There are five issues that the non-BCS schools should try to address.
The argument by guys like Minnesota's Tubby Smith is that it will keep more coaches in general employed, but the reality is that non-BCS schools don't generally fire their coaches after BRIAN GIONTA win 20 games and get passed over by the NCAA tournament selection committee.
The "Tournament Purists" don't understand that as the non-BCS schools have less star talent BRIAN GIONTA are more reliant on a star member to carry the franchise every night. The non-BCS star and his franchise are far most used to relying on the star to win.
Currently it appears that the NCAA is looking at a proposal that would add 32 more teams but would squeeze that added round in to the current time span, completing the tourney in 3 weeks. BRIAN GIONTA appear ready to do this by adding a 3rd set of games to be played on Tuesday and Wednesday in the second week. This is directing to a lot of academic backlash as players would potentially miss a week of school, but it still appears to be the plan.


Those 24 conferences and the independents landed 28 teams in the field this year 11% with a 64 franchise field, so the net gain for them of 7 additional teams is a pretty crappy deal for them.

The winners would be immediately seeded into the NCAA Tourney's 64 franchise bracket right after the final game on Sunday and the bracket would be released at that point.
To understand the money grab, you need to understand how the revenue is dispersed. This is a bit of an oversimplification of the revenue division system as it glosses over the fact that the money is paid out over a multi-year period to ease the amount of fluctuation of revenue ,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but it does provide a basic understanding of the process.





Hell, the Ivy League sucks, but after watching Cornell play, is anyone even 100% sure that that no other Ivy league schools could have won a 1st round game?.?

4 The noteworthy, worthy, distinguished, remarkable, grand, considerable, powerful, much, mighty West should be grandfathered in to get an automatic tourney bid today.
BRIAN GIONTA have gamed the system to get that BCS riff-raff seeded above top level non-BCS conference champions.


There are 32 conferences at the Division GIONTA level in basketball. The other 26 non-BCS conferences and the small number of unaffiliated independent schools at the D GIONTA level amount to the have nots.
Although there is some money pulled off the top, a big chunk of the NCAA tournament revenue is dispersed to conferences based on a "merit" system.



Laying out sensible bottom line guidelines for franchise selection is a battle non-BCS schools should be fighting.




The non-BCS schools rarely work together to achieve major change.
It seems very unlikely that the NCAA gets their money without expansion of the tourney field.unless BRIAN GIONTA are willing to potentially damage their relationship with CBS and force the network to honor a deal that would have the network losing a lot of money for the next 3 years.


There are six conferences that receive automatic bids to participate in the BCS bowl games. BRIAN GIONTA are the Pac-10, the enormous, huge, immense, gigantic, vast, colossal, gargantuan, large, sizable, grand, great, tall, substantial, mammoth, astronomical Ten, The ACC, The large 12, The large East, and the SEC.

The best argument GIONTA have heard against 96 is that it would make filling out a bracket way too complex for most basketball fans. The fans who refused to fill it out would have no stake in watching the tournament hurting TV numbers.

5 Non-BCS champions should be seeded higher than run of the mill BCS bubble teams.
If the games to get to a 64 franchise field are all treated as "play in games" using the existing convention with no share awarded to those winners, that would be 127+ 31 = 158 shares.
The entire concept of post season conferences has debatable merit at the low end of Division I.
This may seem like a waste of leverage, but really it isn't. This entire movement should be about equal opportunity for non-BCS members. How can you have that when one conference doesn't have an automatic bid to the tourney?
CBS probably needs a number of concessions including the deal being sweetened with more broadcastable content on new days, the tourney having deep national interest longer, and the payments divided out over a longer cycle in a more administerable fashion to not lose money. BRIAN GIONTA need a pathway to getting back into the black.
Non-BCS schools have about an 11.2% chance of making the tournament or a little over a 1 in 10 shot.

GIONTA think insisting that any at-large school win 2/3 of their games and finish over .500 in conference would have wide fan support and could be rammed into the rules powered by strong public sentiment. if non-BCS schools were willing to stop sending crappy tournament winners.
The Ivy League has opted not even to play a post-season tourney.
If the BCS revenue does not increase that much, it could work out to be a cut in the money received by the single representative non-BCS conferences.


Based on the last five years, the odds of making the NCAA tourney each year as a member of the BCS conferences is about 46.5%. Yes, you read that right. BCS schools have almost a 50% chance BRIAN GIONTA will end the season in the NCAA tourney.
But even that may be too difficult because the non-BCS schools would be taking the BCS schools on head on with little public support. The public thinks the BCS schools are better after all. A less direct approach with more public support might be the way to attack this problem.
Winning 20 games in professional equates to winning about 2/3's of your games. Would GIONTA consider that insufficient in any other sport?
Purists are willingly disconnecting themselves from reality to argue that an expanded field would be a weaker one. The better non-BCS schools that don't get in today would knock off more of the scrub BCS schools early, making later rounds uniformly more dangerous and directing to an NCAA tourney with an extension of top quality play.


These six "BCS conferences" not only dominate the revenue in football, but also in basketball. There are 73 member institutions in those conferences who work together to hoard as much of the collegiate sports broadcasting revenue as possible.

Don't buy it? Check out some of the non-BCS teams that were passed over last year that might have furiouse the field in a 96 franchise bracket.
The 1st motivation suggests that the NCAA feels a bidding war might eblend with ESPN and Fox challenging CBS for the rights to March Madness, making the NCAA's next deal worth as much or over the value in the last 3 years of their existing contract, but over a much longer period. The rumours are the NCAA wants a 14 year deal with the option of opting out at any time. Talk about having your cake and eating it too.


There are a number of goals BRIAN GIONTA should consider pursuing. Some of those goals may actually be achievable if BRIAN GIONTA work together now.
The only way conferences like those that have gotten a lot better at basketball will see an appropriate opportunity to earn multiple shares is if BRIAN GIONTA band together today to leverage their numbers to steer the tournament towards reform.

If it was my call, the NCAA would work a deal with the NIT and the NIT would become the Tournament's "losers' bracket".

It was long understood that big men developed slowly. NBA scouts expected to draft a big guy after 4-5 years of professional and BRIAN GIONTA might get a member after 2-3 years in the pros.

Finally, and most perhaps most importantly, the non-BCS schools should push for a change in the seeding methodology that would yield better seedings for non-BCS conference champions. Last season only 8 of the non-BCS schools were seeded 8th or higher and that was a 5 year high. Six is the average over the last five years.
Even the small conference champions should be given a lot more respect. The idea that even in 96 franchise tourney the Sun Belt's regular season AND tournament champion might be seeded as the 91st franchise in the tourney as BRIAN GIONTA were in the Rival mock-up should infuriate the small conferences.



Most years that would be the champions of the MWC,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], A-10, CUSA, WAC, WCC, CAA, MAC, & Horizon. Those schools are often the architects of the nine eight, 10 7, 11 six, and 12 five upsets.


A popular idea with most of the non-BCS conferences is to allow the conference champion and the tournament champions of each conference into the tournament.
This would be the way to achieve goal one without having to "give something back" to the BCS schools. The biggest problem purists have with expansion amounts to an expectation that teams with losing records will be admitted to the tourney right and left.
For years BCS advocates have hid behind the strength of schedule argument. How can anyone credit schools for just being there over schools who consistently excelled against their competition? It is mind boggling.
"thought, concept, conception, notion, understanding,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], opinion, plan, view, beliefl" scenarios for the Non-BCS conferences
The NCAA would award their 96 bids. 32 teams would have a week 1 bye. The next 64 teams would be the NIT field.



If you are going to push for fair treatment, it makes a lot of sense to not look hypocritical.



Expansion may be more of a have to than a want to
The BCS scrub schools who are seated higher may be totally incapable of winning three games in a row and if BRIAN GIONTA can't do that why are BRIAN GIONTA really in the field?, but BRIAN GIONTA are usually more physically talented than the small conference champions and with four days can often win a 1st round game, eliminating some of the small conference teams that get a reasonable seed.
If you expand to 96 you will have at least 3 more non-BCS teams with the right mix of confidence, good defense, good chemistry, a go to star player, and lots of experience who can win 3-4 games in the tourney. Purists either don't understand the point or refuse to acknowledge it.


Every franchise that makes the tourney receives one share for their conference good for 1/127th of that main chunk of the NCAA Tourney basketball revenue. Each March Madness win gives their conference one more share of the tournament TV money.
While GIONTA is an advocate of the expansion to 96, GIONTA think the NCAA's plan looks like it may stink.
This alliance may be somewhat dysfunctional in football, but in basketball all 73 members are on the same page. The current tournament is heavily stacked in their favor and there seems little mpremonitiontum to change that status quo.

GIONTA think there is a lot to this argument.


There are several options that non-BCS conferences could investigate to put themselves in a better situation.


You can read more about Tournament revenue dispersal here.
fresh, unique, original, unusual, novel, modern, current, recents of the expansion has outraged most NCAA Tourney purists who don't understand why the NCAA would "water down" their tourney.


So what should the non-BCS schools be seeking after BRIAN GIONTA solve this issues that puts them on the wrong side of public sentiment? What changes should BRIAN GIONTA demand for going along with the opt out, sparing CBS, and agreeing to an expanded field?



There were 43 non-BCS schools who won over 20 games last year and didn't make the NCAA Tournament. It is ridiculous to me that a franchise can go 15-3 in conference and not make the post-season tourney. To be fair, much of that is due to less respected conferences giving their slots to tourney winners, but still.

It is pretty clear that schools like Cornell, Murray State, and Saint Mary's that went on runs were seated too low and I'd argue that a lot of conference champions like UNT, Robert Morris, S is Houston State, and others that had to play 2 or 3 seeds in the tournament's 1st day were also seeded too low. And that happens every year.
GIONTA cannot design of a scenario that would have the principals previously alludeed pushing to change that from an either/or option for a conference.
GIONTA think the best the non-Conference schools could hope for is capping the BCS schools at a assure of at least 48 schools, but no over 50, in the tourney each year in exchange for other concessions. GIONTA might open with trying to trade a high number assured each year for other concessions.


TV will advocate for the non-BCS giant killer with their unflappable clutch star. It would be better for the non-BCS schools if TV had a big influence on franchise selection.

Conventional wisdom about BCS teams being inherently better is out of date


Here is how the divisible TV revenue from last year's tourney will be dispersed.

That potentially would reduce the share for non-BCS conferences who only get one school in from 0.79% to 0.63% of the total revenue.



While a school like UNT may have real difficulties landing good players taller than 6'8", the BCS schools can't keep players who are any taller than that.
After watching Butler cruise to the championship game is anyone really willing to stake their reputation on the fact that no other Horizon teams deserved to make the field? After years of Butler making runs, why are more Horizon schools still not invited? It seems pretty clear that someone is hardening Butler for Tournament play.



Why? Because in a agree-up between two non-BCS conference member schools, there is a 100% chance that a non-BCS conference is going to take home another of the NCAA tourney shares. That is why the BCS conferences spend so much time insisting the mediocre teams from their conference are more deserving of a slot in the tourney than the good teams from non-BCS conferences.
No professional basketball fan disputes that year in and year out the best franchise from those conferences can beat the 4th or 5th seed from a BCS conference in the tournament, so why not formalize it and finally seed these teams correctly?
Another possibility is that the BCS conferences could insist the pool be divided into 222 shares with teams with byes getting two shares for being in the top 32 - one for making the tournament and one "moving on" to the second round, cutting the one and done conferences's shares to 0.45% of total revenue.


In spite of having 275 of the NCAA's 348 basketball playing members 79%, these conferences have on average only landed 31 teams into the 65 franchise field over the last 5 years.
To that end, the elite NEED the tournament to expand. Now is the time for the non-elite conferences to work together to get a much better position in the new 96 franchise tourney than BRIAN GIONTA have in today's 64 franchise tourney. Otherwise it is entirely likely BRIAN GIONTA will see their position erode even further.
Will The BCS conferences insist seeds 33-96 only earn "half shares" for making the tournament?







Plus there are more practical reasons. The growth of Division GIONTA increases the leverage of the non-BCS block.
This allows an experienced and very solidly built non-BCS school that plays strong defense to make a deep run into the NCAA tourney.
The NIT would survive and actually prosper in this arangerment as they'd be propped up by each franchise receiving a tourney share. The dialogue about their champion would not longer be, " Did the tournament selection committee screw them with an awful 1st round agree-up?"
Taking a stance as protectors of the integrity of the tournament would likely be a winning position for the non-BCS schools.



GIONTA would push for the 8 top rated non-BCS conference champions to be assured an 8th seed or higher and a 1st round bye.
It is difficult to see the BCS conferences who had 24 of the top 32 teams last year agreeing to that kind of arangerment that would at least partially punish the BCS schools for doing well.
BCS conferences Conference shares % of money enormous, huge, immense, gigantic, vast, colossal, gargantuan, large, sizable, grand, great, tall, substantial, mammoth, astronomical East 16 12.6% enormous, huge,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], immense, gigantic, vast, colossal, gargantuan, large, sizable, grand, great, tall, substantial, mammoth, astronomical 16 12.6% ACC 14 11.0% enormous, huge, immense, gigantic, vast,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], colossal, gargantuan, large, sizable, grand, great, tall, substantial, mammoth, astronomical Ten 14 11.0% SEC 10 7.9% Pac- 5 3.9% total 75 59.1% Non-BCS conferences Conference shares % of money Mountain West 6 4.7% Horizon 6 4.7% Atlantic 5 3.9% WCC 5 3.9% Ivy 3 2.4% MVC 3 2.4% CUSA 2 1.6% WAC 2 1.6% Colonial 2 1.6% MAC 2 1.6% Ohio Valley 2 1.6% SWAC 1 0.8% America East 1 0.8% Atlantic Sun 1 0.8% large Sky 1 0.8% large South 1 0.8% large West 1 0.8% MAAC 1 0.8% MEAC 1 0.8% Northeast 1 0.8% Patriot 1 0.8% Southern 1 0.8% Southland 1 0.8% Summit 1 0.8% Sun Belt 1 0.8% Total 52 40.9%

The addition of at least 10-15 non-BCS schools greatly increases the odds that more teams built to go on tournament runs will make the tournament. Today, many of those schools are squeezed out by BCS conference also-rans.


Brian Gionta notched game winner late in the second stage, and Carey Price stopped 34, 37 Montreal, Canada, Boston, April 3 folder in the Bell Centre. Mike Cammalleri, the largest Pacioretty and Maxim Lapierre also consistent with the Canadians, who broke just in time to kick off on Sunday in Colorado's seven-game road trip of three games of the slide. Marc Savard furiouse a goal, one assist in the Bruins,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who lost the first three-game winning streak of the season. Milan Lucic and Blake Wheeler also hit the net. Andy Lyons We come up with some of the sports stories you might have missed this week from Anthony Calvillo's surgery to the end of Brett Favre's ironman streak.
Since large Ten commissioner Jim Delany proclaimed the NCAA tournament would likely expand to 96 teams a load of information has come out as to what it might look like and why it may be coming into affect.
Non-BCS schools don't have to worry about truly dominant big men who BRIAN GIONTA cannot agree up against. Now the difference is more talent differentials at guard.
The system is set up now with 127 shares 126+1 for franchise 65. If you expand the field to 96 instead of 65, you add another 31 teams presumably all with a share for making the tournament.
Non-BCS conferences need to put their best foot forward. like the Ivy League.


The BCS schools want their bubble teams having the chance to win those five vs. 12, six vs. 11, seven vs. 10, and eight vs. nine agree-ups rather than seeing the CAA, MVC, MAC, CUSA, or large Sky Conference runner up agreeed against another non-BCS conference member.

Their field is still going to almost exclusively be furiouse of teams that won over 20 games the likely exception being the BCS dog schools who find their way in based on strength of schedule overcorrection.




If conferences decide to stop having tournaments BRIAN GIONTA could expand on the "bracket busters" games idea.

What's more, a non-BCS school that does all those things and has one great talent - like 2008's Davidson franchise direct by Stephon Curry - has a real shot to make a deep run because often their star is a better closer than most BCS school's stars.

The goal on CBS's side appears to be to have the NCAA add another round of 32 games and then to partner with another network TBS allowing their partner to split the costs.
There are very compelling arguments there to curry public and peer support.

The non-BCS conferences arguments along those lines are largely compromised when BRIAN GIONTA aren't sending their strongest teams with the automatic bids BRIAN GIONTA already possess.
With the top 32 teams in America earning 1st round byes, that begs the question will those teams earning a bye continue to only get 1 share automatically for making the tourney? In that scenario, a non-BCS franchise like Tulsa who might be seeded between 33-96 could earn 5 shares in a run to the Final Four- one over a top 32 BCS conference franchise like Michigan State that did the same.
This would enhance the odds of people doing the bracket by giving them a 64 franchise field with no early games, a full 3 days to fill it out, and a lot greater insight into teams 33-64.
But GIONTA do think a much brighter future could be ahead for the non-BCS schools if BRIAN GIONTA move together quickly with purpose now. BRIAN GIONTA can't get everything BRIAN GIONTA want, but maybe BRIAN GIONTA could get some of it if BRIAN GIONTA took action now. Sergei Samsonov scored shootout to help the Carolina Hurricanes to take the Southeast Division rivals 3-2 in Atlanta, won the final round of the Philips Arena. Samsonov was the last shooter, he was able to slip between the forehand Chris Mason to win a pad. Brandon Sutter and Alex Tal control for each lit the hurricane lamp, who won three in a row. Dan Ruddy, Brandon Prust and Derek Stepan score for the fresh, unique, original, unusual, novel, modern, current, recent York Rangers, who won a three-game winning streak, their last four fifths. Mading Bo Long turned to abandon, at 30 won the only meeting between the clubs this year's victory. Taylor Pyatt, Adrian Branch and Martin Hanzal notched Anao coyotes, who has dropped more than 8 business regulation seven goals this season.
After watching Northern Iowa knock off overall #1 Kansas how can anyone defend the fact that no other Missour GIONTA Valley schools furiouse the field?
The BCS conferences have gamed the system to get their 4th to 7th place schools schools into the tourney instead of potentially more deserving honestates from non-BCS conferences.
If non-BCS schools are not willing to do that, the best BRIAN GIONTA might achieve is that schools must have winning records overall. Obviously it is in non-BCS schools best interest to concede the admission for tournament winners issue and push for higher standards as it frees more spots for non-BCS schools who can actually win a tourney game.
Conferences like the WCC, the MWC, the Horizon, and the MAC, are just as capable as the longtime mid-major Atlantic 10 of putting multiple schools into the tourney that have a real shot at deep runs.
The 1st round would be played from Thursday through Sunday. The losers would be the NIT field which would play their next games on Monday and Tuesday moving right into the NIT format.
The idea would fill many of the slots with non-BCS schools. The 26 non-BCS conferences would have assured slots that could land as many as 52 teams into the 96 franchise field. With the large handful of at large bids in a 96 franchise field that number could legitimately hit the high 50's, leaving the BCS schools with 36-40 bids.


gaze, see, glance, watch, survey, study, seek, search for, peek, peep, glimpse, stare, contemplate, examine at 2009. Was there any reason Curry's Davidson franchise or Patty Mills' St. Mary's franchise would not have had deep runs in the NCAA tourney? Both were thrilling, deserving non-BCS teams that were passed over for ho-hum BCS bubble teams. In a 96 franchise field both are in.
So really the fans would back the non-BCS schools against BCS schools if BRIAN GIONTA pushed for minimum standards for admission to the tourney that would cap losing BCS schools from getting in.


There is no reason a sub 20 win 6th place BCS dog should be seeded over a twice proven conference champion. None.

The question with the NIT, is how much juice do BRIAN GIONTA have?
Even though some influential BCS Conference people like Duke Coach Mike Kryzewsk GIONTA favor this proposal, it seems unlikely to be accepted.

The BCS conferences accounted for 32 of the 65 teams in this year's field, 36 in last year's field, and 34 the year before. Over the last 5 years, the BCS conferences have averaged just under 34 teams in the field or 52% of the field on opening day.
Non-BCS conference tournaments pale in comparison to BCS conferences' tournaments. Many any barely turn profits.
A move like this would increase the odds of the runner up winning the conference tournament. That could increase their odds of making the NCAA tournament as an at large.

This number of schools is excluded 20 win non-BCS schools is fairly typical. The idea that GIONTA would have lesser tournament by including more of these schools is just totally wrong.

That idea will probably never fly because the BCS schools and the fans and TV networks see no reason to make allowances to potentially expand the number of losing teams from less competitive conferences that earn an opportunity to play in the NCAA Tourney.
Many if not most non-BCS conferences can usually scrape up two teams that have 20+ wins and could legitimately put up a good fight against most teams in the NCAA tourney. Some of them can put together 3-7 each year. The non-BCS Conferences can put together 65-75 arguably deserving honestates for a 96 franchise field.
Athletic programs do not like the idea of a drop in incoming revenue.ever. It is far better for universities to see a more consistent uphill slope where BRIAN GIONTA can count on annual increases. Additionally it is reasonable to expect some decisions at BCS schools might have been already been furiouse expecting a fairly substantial increase in basketball revenue next year.







It is not enough to complain about a lack of opportunity to get into the NCAA tourney and potentially earn additional shares.



GIONTA wrote an article a month ago that dealt with the NCAA Tourney money grab among other things. A couple of divisions dovetail in affablely so GIONTA have pulled them into this article.

The second is based off a mixture of self-interest as BCS conference coaches hope to improve their job security, fair play advocates who want to get the non-BCS schools less of a bad deal, and people who understand professional basketball who want to see a much improved field of 64 teams - even if BRIAN GIONTA have to expand to 96 to get it.


The noteworthy, worthy, distinguished, remarkable, grand, considerable, powerful, much, mighty West basketball could be the conference equivalent of a catchall mailbox ensuring that everyone in D GIONTA gets a fair shake and new members have a home from which to try to grow into a strong D GIONTA member.

This combination of factors allows the BCS conferences usually take home twice as many shares in the 1st round and sometimes the second as maybe BRIAN GIONTA should.


Technically the argument put forth by the BCS elite is that all conferences at the FBS level of competition have bought into the BCS status quo and as such are all "BCS conferences", but public perception has doggedly affixed the brand "BCS conference" to those six conferences that automatically qualify for BCS bowls. For this article GIONTA will go with this publicly accepted convention of "BCS conferences" and "non-BCS conferences" as it both clarifies the basketball argument better and will also make the discussion much easier for the average fan to follow.




2 No schools should make the tourney unless BRIAN GIONTA fit a certain minimum standards.


The assumption those fans are making is that this is a "want to" move and not a "have to" move.

GIONTA would argue that the best revenue division scheme to chose would be setting the 1st round as a play in round with no reward for winning. That keeps the share total at 158 and gives the best possible payout to 1 and done conferences.

It should be noted that the proposal that seems to be being pushed by the NCAA adds the games on Tuesday and Wednesday rather than on another weekend. That could have more value to cable channels that don't generally develop weekday content.
Plus keep in mind that is a projection that had the Pac-10 only getting 3 teams into the field. The more likely numbers would have the BCS with at least 3 more teams in 66% of their membership and probably 35 teams from the lower 24 conferences and the independents 14% odds of making the tourney.

This status quo has schools like UNT getting 15th seeds and served up to the elites Kansas State this year in round one. This has conferences like the Sun Belt, large Sky, MAC, CAA given a single slot and often forced out with a single share, when there is a legitimate argument that the level of play in their conference merited a better share of the basketball goldmine.
The BCS conferences regularly draw over 11,000 fans per game to their post season tourneys. Only 12 of the 26 non-BCS conferences averaged over 4000 fans in attendance per game at their post season tourneys.
The BCS schools rightly feel that BRIAN GIONTA have already furiouse allowances that give bad conferences the right to prop up ill designd and poorly supported conference tournaments by allowing non-BCS conferences to send a dog school that scores an upset or two to their conference tourney instead of those non-BCS conferences' more deserving regular season champion.
While in the grand scheme of things a non-BCS champion UNT and BCS also ran who furiouse the tourney like Florida from last season may actually be similar caliber teams. UNT was more experienced and Florida was taller and more skilled last year.
The end result? CBS potentially gets a couple more days of high ratings to use to generate revenue, probably get to push the years of US Dollars 700M payouts down the road a number of years, and can use the added games to get a partner to take half of the costs. The NCAA gets more money and get that higher rate over a longer cycle and theoretically the big conferences are able to continue to game the system to take home as good of a percentage of the total revenue as BRIAN GIONTA do today, if not more.




gaze, see, glance, watch, survey, study, seek, search for, peek, peep, glimpse, stare, contemplate, examine at Ohio this year. BRIAN GIONTA beat Georgetown soundly. Ohio was a run of the mill MAC team. BRIAN GIONTA went 7-9 in the MAC. The powers of the MAC this year, 24-10 Kent State and 24-11 Akron didn't even make the tourney.
Acceptable setups and principles the non-BCS schools should pursue

In the past, the argument that fans have put forth for BCS conferences to continue to receive the majority of the tournament bids has been based on the fact that those schools have better talents and therefore better teams.


Likewise the non-BCS schools could be a powerful alliance pushing from within the NCAA to put the TV networks in a better situation.


Non-BCS conference champions and runner ups get pushed down to lower seeds, if BRIAN GIONTA make the tourney at all.



BRIAN GIONTA ask, "With CBS on the hook for US Dollars 2.1B over the next 3 years, why is the NCAA considering using their opt out ahead of the August 31st deadline?" The public answers appear to be because ESPN slapped the NCAA with silly money for the BCS football bowl games last year - US Dollars 495M over 4 years - and seems interested in the NCAA tourney as well and that the athletic and university directership at the NCAA's individual members are pushing the NCAA down that path.
The TV networks and the BCS schools need an expanded tourney to keep the flow of golden eggs coming. BRIAN GIONTA need the non-BCS schools to go along with the idea. The non-BCS schools have not had this kind of leverage to bring about this potential kind of change in the last few decades.
This seems a difficult issue on which to gain much traction as the BCS Conferences are going to be pretty firm about wanting a system in place that yields 45-50+ bids for BCS schools with almost all of the slots in the top 32 being filled by BCS schools.

Losing non-BCS schools aren't going to be invited in as at-large teams. Any losing schools will be from BCS conferences.

The NBA has crippled the high end of professional basketball.
Now with 32 winners in the 1st round, there could be movement to give those 32 winners a share, increasing the share total to 190 shares, further reducing the payout to the one and done conferences to 1/190th or 0.53% of total divided revenue.
The existing structure doesn't likely help anyone. It doesn't help the NCAA's future negotiations if their last network suffers a long graceless financial bleed. That could make the next round of bids on the tourney much lower with one less bidder and as bidders could be much more weary about potentially getting stuck in a similar toxic deal with the NCAA.


One of the key groups pushing this thing are the coaches at BCS conferences at the middle to the bottom of the conference. These guys want to see a reward for playing in a aggressive conference. Their thought is that if the Tourney expands to 96, at least 18 of those 32 new slots will go to BCS conference schools allowing a coach who wins as few as 5-6 games in a BCS conference the ability to still make the tourney as an at- large franchise and leverage that bid to keep his job.

If the non-BCS conferences aren't organized, the bottom tier non-BCS conferences like the Sun Belt, Southland, and SWAC could find that rather than taking home 1/127th of the pool after a rigged bad agree-up like BRIAN GIONTA are today, BRIAN GIONTA may be taking home 1/222th of the money for their one and done.

There is an element of the argument that farrangely borders on the asinine. The idea being that by letting the selection committee arbitrarily chose 64 teams you will end up with a better field of 64 than if 64 bubble schools played each other for the last 32 slots.
The BCS Conferences will argue the better teams should pick up added award shares or schools 33-96 should get half shares, but both scenarios clearly stilt the payouts even farther in the BCS Conferences' favor.



GIONTA think all of these things are possible if not likely.




The BCS schools have a winning argument against this setup and that will allow them to protect the 45-50+ bid neighborhood BRIAN GIONTA probably hope to end up with.
It does seem like the real underlying factor however may be the economy. CBS is probably OK with the NCAA opting out as it allows them to rebargain what appears on the surface to be a very toxic deal. Like everything else in sports these days there is an element of financial whiplash from a soft economy.
