From ESPN:

The 2020 College Basketball Invitational has been canceled because of the uncertainty of the coronavirus, The Gazelle Group announced Wednesday.

"Due to the uncertainty about the coronavirus and the impact it is having on college campuses across the country, we have decided to cancel the 2020 College Basketball Invitational," the statement read.

The Gazelle Group, which created the tournament in the 2007-08 season, said the CBI would return in 2021.

The College Basketball Invitational selects 16 teams that are not picked for the NCAA tournament or NIT. South Florida won the tournament last season in a best-of-three final over DePaul.

The CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament told ESPN's Jeff Borzello in a statement that its tournament is still scheduled to be played.

Better than having it buried on page 4 of a thread that has deteriorated to political arguments.

I blame the Dems ... they never liked the CBI. Too liberal.

Or is the Republicans fault? Not giving a crap about the little guys and mid-majors?

Either way ... I wanted to make sure I politicized this for you.

I blame China. They built a very racist wall to keep out Mongolian refugees and now god is punishing them.

Let's blame Mexico for exporting the Coronavirus. Or was it the Modellovirus? The DosEquisvirus?
