    1. The worst part of this is that the mid-majors can do all the work to recruit a great player, but after their first productive season they are going to get poached by someone in a big conference. Over time, I expect the men’s tournament will increasingly start to look like the women’s tournament where smaller schools cannot compete and are blown out in early rounds.
