Coronavirus lookin' good to get the overall #1 seed in the tournament. I'm not sure anyone can stop their march to the championship this year.

Also I'm thrilled North Carolina got to get blown out one last time before the season shut down.

Every tournament will be cancelled by the end of the day I expect. I wonder if NCAA cancels, or just tries to push ahead. I guess it's still a week away for the first games, if they got rid of the first four games.

NCAAs aren't gonna happen if a majority of the conference tournaments this week get cancelled. i'm annoyed at the basketball cancellations but i'm furious at the inevitable cancellation of the NCAA wrestling tournament because Iowa was gonna win their first title in 10 years and now i can't watch Spencer Lee dismantle a bunch of fools on his way to the Hodge award.

Welp. This is what happens when you have a government that completely bungles both the action and the messaging surrounding a pandemic. What a world.

Selfishly, I hope they postpone it and still play it later instead of outright cancelling, but I get how difficult that is logistically. I guess 2020 will join 2013 as years without a champion. I'm really curious to see how long these mass-gathering cancellations last.

the big east finally cancelled, effective immediately

a neat cape posted:I can see them postponing the actual tournament but not the conference tournaments Yeah I assume those are all done. That's an easy workaround though because you can just put regular season champs in as the auto bids, if it happens.

Cancel it but then next year's winner (Iowa) gets two trophies, imho

Obviously Texas was poised for a Cinderella run to a championship after being the last team in. Hang the banner, sign Shaka Smart for 5 more years.

Everyone gets tested the day before each round and any team whose tests come back positive forfeit the game. Stuff like that. But tests in the US are expensive and aren't done proactively. A national policy other than, "It's all OK, it's just a bad flu" would also help matters.
