ACC and Pac-12 just shut it down.  I say no night games tonight, too much pressure now.

I'm surprised these are cancellations and not suspension of activity like the NBA. It should still be possible to play these games in the future. How long out that would have to be isn't clear, but I'd like to think there will be an effort to get some of these tournaments rescheduled.

NCAA Tournament hasn't cancelled. So are the conferences supposed to suspend their tournament and then play after the Final Four? Or are they supposed to assume the NCAA will suspend the NCAAT/NIT and then wait for the conferences to complete their suspended conference tournaments before selecting teams and beginning the NCAAT/NIT?

Neither of those options makes any sense. Hence the decisions to cancel instead of suspend.

There is a very small chance that the NCAA tournament will go on even if it's "suspended."

There is an absolute zero chance that any of these conference tournaments are rescheduled.

I was assuming the big dance would be suspended/cancelled as well. Obviously, there's nothing to play for after the NCAAs are over.

Schools are closing.  No practice for weeks and weeks.  They will not even look at each other.
