    No There should be Major Division for basketball and a Minor Division for basketball. Crown champions in both levels.

    I mean we do the same thing (esentially) at the high school level. Different levels but you are still a State Champion.

    I hope they never do this. The NCAA tournament is still about those Cinderella's who make a run. It's still about Jimmy and his One Shining Moment, Massimino and his upset, Butler almost rewriting Hoosiers, St. Peters, Farleigh-Dickinson, and so many more moments. Hell our Final 4 Run is a direct result of one of those moments when Pete Carrill and Princeton knocked off UCLA.

    People will stop caring when it's 13-17 LSU playing 27-2 Houston just because they are big schools.
