Message: [QUOTE="Travelman6, post: 3893696, member: 7597"] It is ridiculous. Give the low majors the first week of March, Monday-Saturday to do their thing, use the days as they will (eg: tourney runs from Monday-Wednesday or Wed.-Sat, or even use the full six days (and include days off), etc.). Give the top 10 conferences the second week of March, Monday-Saturday to do their thing, use the days as they will. The last tourney ends around midnight, Saturday. That locks in the first Monday of March as the start of the conference tourney madness, every year. The second Monday of March is always the start of High major Tourney madness. Give the committee one solid day, Sunday, to really put the brackets together properly, considering the champions from the previous day. Selection Sunday continues, like normal. That way, the second Sunday of March is locked in as a "holiday' of sorts as it already is known, Selection of Sunday. As it stands, things are too tight with tourneys ending within hours (SEC, A10) or even minutes (AAC, B10) before Selection Sunday and it feels in part, (too) rushed. It makes too much sense to work and people will say "blah blah blah, major games are on the weekend NOW so that means more money. But this is March Madness, the money will pour in no matter what.
