While visiting Troy Nunes Is An Absolute Magician on an offseason May afternoon, I came across Andrew Pregler’s post centered around a Luke DeCock News-Observer story about several potential changes ACC commissioner John Swofford wants the NCAA to adopt in response to the Rice Commission’s proposals for fixing college basketball. Pregler’s story focuses on the most germane of these for the purposes of this site—NCAA Tournament expansion. And I wanted to expand upon it a bit.
Swofford’s proposal isn’t anything terribly radical. He’s not calling for a move to 96 teams or 128 or 351.
