The fact that people cite professional sports as being more popular than an amateur sport as a reason that that sport is irrelevant has never made sense to me.
College football isn't nearly as big of a deal in the rest of the country as it is in the South, either. Professional sports on average are just more popular than college sports. But in terms of college sports, basketball is a clear #2 and the fact that much of this board dismisses it as a joke is a defense mechanism for its shitty basketball programs.

No, it's a shitty product. All of the good players play one year and then disappear. So you either get a team full of gifted players who don't know what the frick they're doing (Kentucky) but can out-athlete everyone, or you get a team full of seniors that will never play in the NBA. I used to watch college basketball despite Alabama not giving a frick, but I haven't in at least a decade or more. The only one getting defensive is you. I'm just pointing out the obvious.
