3 thoughts on “Should men’s and women’s Final Fours be held in the same city, same weekend?

  1. Equality is a meaningless term anymore because it has been used so much. Should Men & “Baby Producers” (whatever the ACLU and the Biden administration has told us is currently proper) have their Final Four at the same time. Sure they should. I’m surprised it has taken this long. While they are at it, add their volleyball championships at the same time. More events, more fun.- Steven Pettinga

  2. You don’t want them in the same city, on the same weekend unless you want to diminish both. We know the issues about “equity” which is a NON WORD when used in the context in which they are using it.
    If you want to finish off the men’s final four this would do it. They did with a form of “equity” for small schools in the Indiana boys tournament back in 1998 by going to class competition and taking away parts or all of weekends for “equity” with girls games and if it weren’t for the tradition the boys tournament. it too would be dead. The boys tournament went from making a huge profit to being in the red. Only the good graces of the Pacers and other outside entities have allowed the Championship games to be in the “Conseco, Bankers Life and now Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
    So if the NCAA for the purpose of EQUITY, chooses something like this it will end up being a form of self emulation. The networks and others will probably up the money to do this because that seems to be what they are now doing but the reason the men’s tournament was broadcast and why networks actually bid on them was the amount of money they can make.
    If they do this for the reason they are putting forth, much of that money will not come so much from profit for something people actually want to watch but from yet another imposition of political correctness shoved down from “heaven above” in an effort to make “everyone” happy and so the sports industry doesn’t look like its racist or sexist or any other awful label.
    Where did just watching sports on TV because we wanted to see an event we were interested in?
    The “politically correct sports industry” has ruined the NFL, Major League Baseball, NASCAR, the NBA, and just about everything they touch. If no one has noticed much of viewing public is tuning out.

  3. “Consideration of a combined Final Four site follows an external review of highly publicized gender-equity problems that came to light during the 2021 basketball tournaments, including significant differences in weight-room accommodations, hospitality amenities and even welcome packages for participating student-athletes.”

    What a goofy world we live in – some serious ‘first world’ problems here. How about getting rid of the weight rooms at the Final Four sites and ditching the amenities and welcome packages? You’re going to school for free and getting the opportunity of a lifetime. That should be enough. Says everyone that had to pay for their own schooling…
