Tournament Expansion Might Not Be So Bad

Duke won the NCAA basketball championship on Monday, but the madness isn’t over yet. Last Thursday, Greg Shaheen, vice president of the NCAA, announced a proposal to expand future basketball tournaments from 65 to 96 teams.

The logistics aren’t finalized, and there are some hurdles like the CBS television contract that runs through 2013, but the feeling is that expansion is going to happen, perhaps as early as next year.
