More brutal news for the sport as the power conference greed continues to run roughshod.

Just another brick in the wall toward the "Power" schools breaking off from the NCAA and doing their own thing. Probably in the next decade or so.

Unbelievable, first 12 spots got to Power 6 conference schools. 20 at large for supposedly next 20 top teams not getting an ncaa bid. Now that they also screwed mid majors with the net ranking system algorithm most of the other 20 bids will also go to the big conference schools. Total BS!!!

Seems to me someone needs to start a tournament that does not include power 5 schools find a broadcast partner and show the power 5 conferences that the little guys can play to and it will probably get better ratings and support because everyone loves an underdog and i believe people are getting tired of the power 5 money grab people like competition not money grabs people like purity

I think this is what the Power 5 wants though.  They want the little guys to break off and do their own thing.

Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. Welcome to the wonderful world of NIL. Mid major basketball will soon be as much fun as watching WNBA. Charles Barkley nailed it.
