Texas Basketball: NCAA manages to make the wrong move again

The mounting frustration with the NCAA and its handling of college athletics hit a boiling point when hoops was supposed to start its postseason. Many were angered by the way that the NCAA handled the cancellation of various championships for spring sports and with the men’s and women’s basketball tournaments. And the Texas basketball program was one of many impacted by the decision to half the conference tournaments and the Big Dance this month.

Cause for cancellation of pretty much every major sporting event/professional and college sports league worldwide was obviously warranted. All of the precautions surrounding the novel coronavirus shut down a good portion of events, business, and travel within the United States among a number of other countries.
