ACC Proposes NCAA tournament with every Division 1 team

Why must we mess with something that is already perfect the way it is? Leave it alone.
The play in games suck enough, it never should have went past 64. This idea is just ridiculous.
Does Coach K really have that bad of a team this year that he's worried about not making the tourney?
I just don't see the point or what it actually accomplishes. Conference seasons and/or conference tournaments are already good at removing the crap teams. As long as the season isn't cut to a dozen games, that model still works. If it gets cut too much, then there isn't going to be a tournament anyways because that means **** is bad.
Seems like a solution in need of a problem to fix.

There are a lot of cool, innovative ideas thrown out there to make sports happen during covid. This is not one of them.
I like the idea of cutting out the play-in games instead.
64 is the perfect number. Plenty of chances for plenty of teams to get in, and upsets are still really harsh.

I'm good with finding a way to get every Division One team into some sort of tournament. However the main NCAA tournament should be reserved for the 64 best teams.
Aren't the conference tournaments in a way part of the NCAA tournament anyways? You can be 0-25 but get hot during your conference tournament and still make the dance.
I have to think conference tournaments get eliminated in the ACC's proposal. What importance would they serve?
Exactly... and exactly why it makes absolutely no sense to even bring this up as a potential solution. There is literally no problem that it solves for.
I think they come pretty close to that by the time you add the NIT, CBI?, and I think one more. Problem is nobody cares about those tourneys most of the time not even the schools fans judging from NIT crowds. ISU is the exception if there is hoops in Hilton ISU fans are there.
I see it.
In 2019 they only got seven of their fifteen teams into the Big Dance. I think I see the “problem“.
