. >> did you catch any of the ncaa game? >> i caught a couple minutes of it. >> i caught the last five minutes in my office before being at work. >> the best part. >> it was the best part. at that point louisville had sort of blown it out already. great game. congratulations to them right. >> absolutely. we begin this half hour with what was an exciting end, as john said, to a dramatic ncaa tournament. the louisville cardinals went into it as the overall number one seed. and after a fierce fight in every round, they came out on top with a victory over the michigan wolverines. >> the high scorer was luke hancock, he helped louisville turn around a 12-point deficit. injured guard, kevin ware, remember him? he provided the inspiration. he got to cut down the net. >> it is not about me. i have never been that type of guy. you know? these guys came out and played a great michigan team. these are my brothers, you know, they got the job done.

we have been documenting my journey through ncaa tournament.he way, the cnn express bus. do you have a bus? >> no, i don't. what's up with that? >> you need to get a bus. it is the way to travel. we started in auburn hills and moved on. it's amazing to see the moments that sticks with you in a great game. it's talking to all these kids. >> the white house? >> i'm from d.c. i'm presidential. and you get to see that kid who lives on your block who's always in the driveway, always with the basketball and doing that three, two, one, whoo! >> that was me. >> they get to have that moment. and the fans too have been so incredible. screaming for their schools. even if they're not really basketball fans, they just want to support, represent, and then you get all the people screaming from their brackets so they become syracuse or michigan fans. it really just gets the entire country involved, whether you love sports or not, whether you love basketball or not, you get to cheer for something. it's a lot of fun. >> i will say this, looking at that piece, yo

in the ncaa, we also have tv contracts, we have stadiums that hold over 100,000 people. i would think there are similar dollars, except the main players of the game are not being paid. the question i have and i haven't studied this, where is the money going? >> they are getting paid in scholarships and educations. >> i know that is not 100% true. we have the spartan foundation that has to go out and raise money for the scholarships. why should we have to raise additional money if the money from the stands is not going to the kids? do we need more money or is the money not being allocated correctly? where is the money going? >> there is not an equal distribution of funds. the rich get richer. if you look at the scc, look at the big 12, the television revenue comes up to 16 to 21 million per school. you are talk 900,000, maybe 1.2 million per school. if they want the play the student athletes at that much a year, the question is how can the school, like idaho or san jose state do a distribution? if i'm recruiting you, don, and sanford is recruiting you, and i can give you
