I think the NCAA Men's and Women's Tournaments and the NIT Tournament will wind up being called off.

I doubt it. They'll go all empty arenas before they do that. They'd probably move the sites to smaller venues, because there's no reason to play in an empty football stadium when you could play in an empty arena that's 1/3 the size. But CBS wants these games played, and I can't see them not getting what they paid for.

Too much major $$$$ involved to cancel huge made for TV event.. They absolutely play in an empty arena

2020 NCAA Tournament games to be played without fans in attendance due to coronavirus

That was quick.

Might as well play the games in high school gyms

It’s going to be so weird when a guy sinks a buzzer beater and there’s 0 applause

I bet it will be odd playing big stakes basketball in an empty arena. Probably kind of eerie.

Laughable. Not surprising, but laughable nonetheless.

You will be able to hear what all the coaches are saying to each other... when a referee farts, you will hear it on television. Very eerie.
