I am a big college hoops fan but I hate it

Too much fanfare for a practice, most teams don't even really practice but just do playground shite like dunk contests

All it is these days is a recruiting tool and nothing else

I don't think it's hurting anybody. If fans enjoy it, keep it.

How do you feel about 90,000 people showing up at a spring scrimmage? This is fun for the players and its free for fans, its not a bad thing.

For the big programs, yes

For smaller programs, no, it's good time for students and fans to have a good time before reality and no tourney birth sets in.

No. For a big program it's a recruiting tool and giant pep rally to get fan's interest back.

I'm worried that it takes away important study time and gets these student-athletes to bed way too late, making them too groggy for class and starting a whole vicious cycle in motion.

Useless hype, for a dying sport (college basketball), that is pushed hard by ESPN, the Northeast sports media, and the non-football playing schools.

Ignore it like the rest of us in the South.

All I care about is football in the Fall, then my focus switches to LSU baseball after the bowl games.

You say college basketball is a dying sport but then talk about college baseball?
