NCAA Tournament expansion necessary to avoid Power-5 separation, which would devastate Gonzaga
Om episode
The NCAA Tournament is in danger, with Power-5 programs looking toward a future where they break away from the NCAA and form their own tournament to avoid having to play mid-major programs. Expanding the field could be a short term solution, but unless the NCAA steps up and prevents ESPN and FOX from dictating how college athletics operate this reality is hard to ignore, and could have devastating, catastrophic ramifications for Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs.Gonzaga adds a walk-on guard to the roster to take the place of Kellen Mitchell and Abe Eagle, and an exhibition game with local NAIA school Lewis-Clark State is set to take place. Will the Zags play another exhibition game, and who might the opponent be?We close out the show discussing Gonzaga's women's soccer program, who are ranked No. 21 in the country with a 6-1-1 record and the third most goals in the country so far this year.Discord Server: }https://discord.gg/N9tYXqMDfLink to national college basketball national podcast: }https://linktr.ee/LockedOncbbhttps://linktr.ee/LockedOnZagsLocked on Zags - Part of the Locked on Podcast Network.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!BirddogsGo to birddogs.com/lockedoncollege or enter promo code LOCKEDONCOLLEGE for a free water bottle with any purchase.
