The NCAA is nearing a decision about expanding the men's and women's basketball tournaments to 76 teams, a significant change from the current format of 68. This decision will be influenced by ongoing discussions with media partners and logistical considerations, as the proposed expansion could affect travel and venue arrangements. NCAA president Charlie Baker has acknowledged the complexity of such a change, emphasizing the need to finalize decisions in the coming months to prepare for a potential implementation starting in the 2025-26 season.
An expansion of the tournament would be a historic and potentially controversial step for the NCAA, marking the biggest change since 1985.
If we were to go down this road, you just think about the opening weekends, who has to travel the longest, it gets complicated.
