  1. How someone hasn't put a yearly NY State type mid-major tournament together is mind blowing...

    UA, Bingo, SB, Hofstra, Siena, LIU, Columbia, Buffalo, Marist, Niagara, St. Francis, Cornell, Wagner, Fordham, St. Bonaventure, Colgate, Canisus, Manhattan

    Put together a yearly 4 team tournament, you got enough NY schools, this way you can avoid conference teams playing each other. I would rather see this then these teams playing DII or DIII schools.

    Hell, I even got a name...Empire State Classic.

  2. To me it's very simple what this is leading to...

    The NFL System

    You will have an AFC and and NFC conference, with 3 divisions...each conference will have their own 8 team playoff and the winners of each conference play each other for the national championship.

    ESPN will get one conference and Fox the other (like CBS and Fox). Amazon and CBS will sprinkle in their coverage of certain games like NFL does with Thursday Night and Sunday Night Football.

    Teams who don't get in the conferences will create the new I-AA (MAC, American, Sun Belt etc...), while teams in current I-AA (CAA, Big Sky, Missouri Valley etc...) will create a new I-AAA

    And yes it would be the same for basketball

    The Power 5's are pretty much going to eliminate the fat and create their own level of NCAA sports. They will let UA's of the world get some non-conference action, but they won't be invited to the big parties/dances anymore.
