Has anyone that's worth a damn actually said a 48 team tournament is possible?

I don't think they will do it, but there is a rumored contingency plan for a 16 and/or 48 team field. The 48 team field would have all the conference champions. The 16 team field would just be the top 16 teams.
FWIW, they discussed just having a 16 team field last year and doing it all in five days in Atlanta, but it was quickly abandoned. They had decided that it'd be better to do nothing at all than to do that. And, even had they decided to do a 16 team field, they would have had to cancel it anyway."You can't fix stupid." Ron White

Saw a bracket projection in the Athletic.
It has #9 Xavier playing #8 Louisville in the first round.
Fun times....he went up late, and I was already up there.

I like this path! Oklahoma scares me a bit because they are playing really good basketball right now.

Losses today by Duke, VCU, Boise State, Mississippi, Indiana and Stanford have helped the Xavier bubble cause.
Duke was right on the cut line coming into today. VCU takes a hurtful loss also right on the cutline.
Boise State probably still in but just got beat twice hurts their chances.
Losses by Mississippi, Indiana and Stanford may have knocked them so far out now that they need to make a long run in their conf tournaments to the semi finals at a minimum to have any shot.2014 RTS National Champion $200,000 (2460 teams) 2015 RTS 2nd Place $25,000 (3120 teams)

More good news both Minnesota and Drake lost just now.
This basically puts Minnesota way out needing a deep run in the Big Ten tournament which is amazing they are the only team with a win over Michigan and have also beat Ohio State and Iowa and yet not likely dancing.
Drake could not really afford a loss especially to a bad team like Bradley. They still might have life as they were right on the cut line before today they were once 18-0 and may not make it. Their only hope is making it to the MVC finals and losing to Loyola Chicago. Even then they still might not make it.2014 RTS National Champion $200,000 (2460 teams) 2015 RTS 2nd Place $25,000 (3120 teams)
