Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark defended the floor as the Big 12 men’s tournament got underway Tuesday.

Yormark said he was a fan of one of the most controversial debates on the internet over the last week: The Big 12 Tournament court.

Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark is in favor of expanding the men’s NCAA Tournament to 76 teams. He also indicated that a decision could come in the next few months, which opens the possibility of any proposed changes being implemented as soon as next year.

Speculation on expanding the 68-team bracket for the annual men’s basketball tourney was fueled earlier this season, when NCAA senior vice-president of basketball Dan Gavitt said “committees are giving it more consideration than at any other time in my 10-plus years at the NCAA.”

Goodbye, clean and traditional hardwood. Welcome, a court emblazoned with hundreds of “XII” logos that stretch from baseline to baseline and result in a polarizing Louis Vuitton-like look to some fans and an abhorrent eyesore to others.
