Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

At the prior NCAAs in Omaha, the 4 center sections of lower bowl on each side of the court are corporate seats and participating teams' fan bases. So essentially, approximately free throw line to free throw line will not be Creighton ticket holders in the lower bowl. Everything outside of that and the endzones (except those endzone seats reserved for teams' bands and students) will be tickets sold to Creighton ticket holders - some of which may end up in the fans of teams via after market sales.

Yesterday's revelation about Sean Miller's direct involvement in the $100,000 payment to DeAndre Ayton puts the Selection Committee in a real quandary.

"The presumption of innocence until proven guilty" is the cornerstone of the American justice system, but how can the Selection Committee credibly put Arizona in the NCAA Tournament field with the detailed information about Sean Miller now in the public domain?

There is little doubt that before Selection Sunday, there will be additional detailed revelations about some other top 16 basketball teams listed above.

The NCAA and its Selection Committee have a lot of difficult issues to resolve between now and Selection Sunday on March 11th.
