Will leave it up to more knowledgeable fans to comments if this is legit?

Normally I would say he's full of hot air. But maybe this is an exception.

BTW, really hope that Tom Brady weighs in on this conversation.

In the current state of college sports nothing would surprise me.

Wow it makes a lot of sense .

But unlike what the Patriots did, where they used different balls, each team uses the same basketball. No competitive advantage/disadvantage.

Major disadvantage. Anything outside of the norm makes the playing field more level and favors the underdog. Not much different than a torrential downpour which affects a FB game leveling the playing field and thus favoring the weaker team.

Really? Aren't both teams disadvantaged and the game suffers? Do we really want that in the NCAA Tournament?

I meant there’s not an imbalance of disadvantage, though Dan makes a point to the contrary.

No, I don’t want the game to suffer. But I didn’t see it as a way to provide advantage to one team over another.
