Mark Emmert endorsed the use of bubbles for the 2021 championships. He said his preference would be to keep those men’s and women’s NCAA tournaments as scheduled, beginning in March.
"If we need to do a bubble model and that's the only way we can do it, then we'll figure that out."
He added that Kentucky already has created a bubble, with players competing in their own practice facility, working out in their own weight room and living in a private dorm, which has its own chef. That model can be translated across the country, Calipari said, because college basketball teams have fewer players than football programs.
While Emmert acknowledged that the COVID-19 pandemic ultimately will dictate the schedule for winter and spring sports, as well as the fall sports that were postponed until the spring, he said the preference would be to keep the men's and women's NCAA basketball tournaments as scheduled, beginning in March and ending in early April.
"This is mostly logistics and health care and media time. These are not insurmountable problems," he said."They're hard, but they're not insurmountable."
