NCAA Tournament
The NCAA stands for the National Collegiate Athletic Association. They formed around the ideas of ensuring the well-being of college athletes and enforcing various rules around their sports. There are 32 conferences in the NCAA that participate in the national tournament. The NCAA makes millions of dollars from the combined revenue of tickets and television, which means the NCAA tournament brings in millions of fans wanting to see their favorite teams compete for the national title.
The NCAA tournament occurs every year and has since 1939. Each of the 32 conferences receives an invitation to the tournament, and the conferences award these invitations to the team that wins the postseason conference tournament. Teams not awarded an automatic qualification are selected by a committee that judges performance and pedigree.
Afterward, the four remaining basketball teams compete in the Final Four, deciding which team takes home its national championship title.

Kansas Jayhawks Best Coaches
James Naismith not only invented the much-beloved sport of basketball, but he also became the Jayhawks’ first coach in 1898, forming the team that we all know today as one of the league’s top contenders.
Phog Allen led the Jayhawks to their first national championship in 1952. Prior to their first national championship, the Jayhawks had already earned a great reputation as a basketball team but hadn’t had a championship to back it up.
The current coach for the Kansas Jayhawks is Bill Self, who is one of the highest-paid coaches in the NCAA. He is followed by John Calipari of Kentucky, a team with eight national championships, and Tom Izzo of Michigan State, who led the team to one national championship.
Bill Self led the KU Jayhawks to their 2022 national championship win after a championship drought of about a decade and also led the team to their previous championship in 2008.
