Actually I'd just seen that it's one of the few without a mid-major in the past decade but in thinking about it I'm sure Memphis is responsible for a lot of those. Davidson, George Mason, VCU, Butler, Xavier were some others though in the past few years, of course.

However, for all I've heard about parity recently, the final eight are all high major, high profile programs.
