How does Basketball do it with over 350 schools in D1?

They dont. Its why you have football conferences crying because the big east can spend all its rev share on basketball since they dont field football teams. Also march madness guarantees access to every conference in a huge (and still expanding) field. You want a 64+ team cfp with teams like kennesaw st or western Michigan getting guaranteed cfp births for winning their conference? Existence is not the same as working. Kentucky dropping 50M+ on a roster should not be under same regulations as high point. We've got schools buying coaches court side seats at smaller schools to tamper. The system is broken and needs a reset in worse way

First I have read FBS crying about Big East rev sharing but I do miss a lot.

If CFP expands to 16 or 24 then that many out of 130 schools isn’t a bad breakdown vs 64/68 out of over 350.

Everyone knows there is a big difference between P4 schools and the rest so what is solution? But as of now, going by same rules for all sports.

If not longer schedules, losses will be deemphasized and there will be more of them for the top teams. Theres just more losses on the schedule when cutting out all the low-mid level P5 teams.

Didn’t diminishing wins happen last year with the Miami vs ND before the CFP? We’re going longer schedule and the P5 teams will be delegated to the Bowls or their own playoffs. Much like the NCAA/NIT. Not necessarily a bad thing, bc it would showcase talent for the major programs to target their best players. The lower level D1 schools will be feeder schools for the majors,.. BC it’s all about the next level. The reality is, and this is difficult, for players/parents , that a free education is a better life choice. SO CHOOSE WISELY

**** the sec. **** nick saban. **** urban meyer. he should focus on how much of an ******* he is as a human being and work on getting into make believe heaven.
 
They really need to cut revenue sports like basketball, football and baseball out of the NCAA and put them under sports league commissioners. That way the individual sports can create their league divisions under own rules and constraints.

The problem w this is the student portion.

I’ve long stated that the NCAA’s power should be relegated to student, only, related issues (e.g: academic eligibility, transferring, transcripts, etc.), but there needs to be a separate commissioner over revenue generating sports that oversea competition, including compensation. If there is a NCAA related National Championship, then they be involved as a governing body in charge of formatting, venue selection, eligibility, etc.

I also believe due to its inequities, FBS should be reduced. CFP needs to be centered around the Power 5 while G5 have their own NCAA sanctioned Nat’l Championship like FCS, DII, etc.

There were a lot of red flags on Pearce entering last year's draft, but Falcons Terry Fontenot trusted his intel/instincts. Fontenot was fired in January after the team's fifth straight losing season.

"We're about as thorough and detailed as you can possibly be," Fontenot said. "We spent a lot of time with him personally, everybody surrounded with him, and it was truly an exhaustive process. And that's what makes us feel good about our culture and everything we are. That's important -- we always talk about intangibles, and we want to bring in guys that love ball and love to compete, and as we build this roster the right way, and we spent a lot of time with him making sure that he was going to fit."

Welp, now that Nike has become aggressive on NIL signing
Jett Washington
Mark Bowman
Aaliyah Chavez
Brandon McCoy
Tyran Stokes

Plus they r beginning to sign college athletes to NIL, it’s going to become increasingly harder for our sports programs, particularly basketball, to obtain elite recruits.
