Message: [QUOTE="dasher, post: 2112791, member: 6061"] That isn't true at all. The ECAC had a lot more than 16 teams. Almost everyone was ECAC in '78. The original tv deal was not with ESPN. It was horrible. The Monday night game was on taped delay at 11:30. I remember one night staying up until 1:30 to watch the Syracuse G-town game (I refused to see the score earlier) as Marty Headd hit a shot to beat those basxxxds. I'm not taking anything away from gavitt. it is just revisionist history today when he is given credit for being an innovator. The eastern eight was already formed. [/QUOTE]
