Why? You realize that basketball revenue is pocket change compared to football revenue!

The TV contract for March Madness is not pocket change and the NCAA makes tons when they really shouldnt, the schools and players should get more.

CBS pays a ton but probably makes a ton.

Just get Barkley and Kenny Smith off of the show, tired of their babbling, and they actually babble.

I cut the cord on Directv so wont be able to watch it at home.

Compared to football, it is pocket change. Look at what CBS is televising tonight. Do you think with CBS' pockets, if the NCAA was a huge money maker, the games would be on TBS? Each ACC school will receive less than five percent of the Iowa's athletic budget from the tournament. The B1G received over 150 million dollars from Iowa, Michigan State & O$U in their three bowl games. Each conference received fifty million dollars for every team in the playoff or a New Year's six bowl.

Can't read! The conferences that have teams in the playoff & the New Year's six bowls receive fifty million per team.

Actually, every power five conference gets fifty million. The B1G got an extra six million for the Spartans & another eight million for Iowa & O$U ($4 million a piece). That is 64 million dollars.

Sorry for the screw up. It was actually sixty-four million dollars. Had too much beer watching Nova!
