The NCAA made the unprecedented decision Wednesday to hold the men's and women's basketball tournaments without fans due to the ongoing coronavirus crisis.
"The NCAA continues to assess the impact of COVID-19 in consultation with public health officials and our COVID-19 advisory panel," NCAA president Mark Emmert said in a statement. "Based on their advice and my discussions with the NCAA Board of Governors, I have made the decision to conduct our upcoming championship events, including the Division I men's and women's basketball tournaments, with only essential staff and limited family attendance.

This is getting beyond ridiculous
It’s almost like a competition to see who can panic the most.

the percentage of Americans with this virus is .00003% and we are reacting like this. If you are sick stay home, how hard is that?
edit: of people in china only .005% have the virus. I know it's spreading but canceling public events across the country?

I look forward to watching the games on TV without that obnoxious fan noise.

We are panicking this bad over a virus less lethal than the common flu.
How bad will it get when a real plague hits. People will be killing each other for food in the streets

Is this actually true? Pretty sure Corona kills a larger percentage of people who get it.

I wonder what the economic impact will be on the host sites.

I wonder what states will do about high school bb games?
Here in ky the state tournament games are about to start.
I guess it will be a state to state decision.

Imagine a game winning shot in the championship game with no fans in attendance. Would be frickin weird

This is the perfect time for the power 5 to leave the ncaa. We all know there are no balls in leadership positions among them and nothing will happen.

Tens of thousands of people die every year from the flu, and nobody blinks. A little more than 20 have died in the U.S. from coronavirus, and we all but shut down the country.
Pure idiocy.

I've always admired Emmert, mainly because he overruled Joe Dean when Dean didn't want to hire Saban, but I hope Emmert is fired after this is over.

Well, there will be virtually no upsets this year. The lower seeds won't be able to play off the fan excitement if they get up and the favorites won't feel like the tide is turning against them.

I should be able to decipher an answer to my question but is the article saying the ENTIRE NCAA tournament will be played without fans? Even Final Four games?
