Message: [QUOTE="Timonen, post: 241190, member: 81"] If multiple teams that people care about get knocked by the APR rules and are forced to miss the tourney, they will change the APR rules. The ncaa can't afford any additional erosion in interest...and knocking the top teams (the ones sending folks to the NBA, typically) based on graduation is only going to make fans and advertisers say " it." If we learned anything this week, it's that offseason NFL news can very easily bury what should be the most interesting part of the tournament (lots of teams left and all good games in big cities on the agenda). I don't know a thing about how we're set to fit/not fit within these standards over the next few years...but my hunch is that it will be a non-issue based on a need to have teams like SU/uconn/UK, etc in teh dance.
