[I]Today we are publishing the first in a two-part series on what the NCAA can and should do, and contingencies it must have on call, in order to give college basketball its best chance at having basketball in the winter and spring of 2021. The NCAA and its membership needs the tournament to tip in 2021, lest athletic departments "get sent back to the ice age," as one coach expressed to me recently. Another coach -- the most prominent in college athletics, the one down at Duke -- has been openly urgent on this as well. In July, Mike Krzyzewski [URL='https://twitter.com/SXMCollege/status/1285711809866072068']said this[/URL]: "We need to have the NCAA Tournament and we need to have some contingency plans based on when the season would start. Everyone says it's going to start on time. We'll see. I would like for us to take a great look at contingency plans, when it might also be. Can it be in April, can it be in May? But we need -- and the NCAA needs -- (the) men's NCAA Tournament. If you don't have it two years in a row, the NCAA, financially, could go in another direction."[/I] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/march-madness-in-april-or-even-may-heres-a-plan-on-how-to-hold-the-ncaa-tournament-in-2021/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
