Why 1980? That is just arbitrary. 1985? Why don't we just vacate our title from 1984 under your logic. Maybe we shouldn't count the any winners of the PGA championship until they switched from match play? If you take this thinking to its logical conclusion I guess Virginia doesn't get to count George Washington as one of its citizens to serve as president because there was no universal suffrage. If you want to argue that it was not as hard to win or make the final four in 1943 than in 2007 I won't disagree. But that team made it to the semifinals and that is just simply a fact. Don't get your knickers in such a twist. I count all 5 Final Fours. I just thought it was an interesting article. Sheesh. Sorry. This response was for Iowa not you.

OK. I guess this is settled. I'll mark myself down as a grad of a program who made the "Final Four" in an eight-team tournament.  |
