The calendar is changing again starting in 2025-2026. The Final Four will still be the first Saturday in April and the Championship Game will be the Monday after that, but we will now have a 22 week season (19 regular season weeks and 3 NCAA Tournament Weeks).
It's not THAT big of a deal, but I kind of think having regular season games before Halloween just feels a little ridiculous. That, and the spotlight on the sport really isn't that bright right out of the gate, so i think the earlier we start, the less attention is paid to the earlier part of the season. But....whatever...
