Some conferences are concurrent with the women’s tournament, some before, and some after, but all champions are crowned between March 8th and 16th, just like the women’s side. After selection for the NCAA championship, with 68 teams playing between March 18th and April 7th, we have multiple other tournaments. Sort of next in line is the National Invitational Tournament or NIT which has the “next” 32 including regular season champions that did not make the NCAA and is played from March 18th through April 3rd. The Basketball Crown Tournament will debut in 2025 with two automatic bids from the Big East, Big 12, and Big Ten along with 10 at-large teams not chosen for the NCAA. Note: a team could be chosen for the NIT, refuse the bid and play in this tournament, but a team selected for the NCAA cannot play in the postseason if they decline. The BCT plays from March 31st through April 6th. The College Invitational Tournament has 16 teams playing between March 18th and March 24th. The College Basketball Invitational also has 16 teams playing between March 20th and March 23rd. The Black College Invitational Championship will feature 8 teams between March 21st and March 23rd. That’s 156 of the 364 teams that will participate in something.
