I don't see College Basketball coming back anytime. Especially from EA. Until they can get Live to a solid level, I don't want them attempting a college basketball game.
I think EA or 2k is the only legitimate options. I don't feel College sports are marketable enough for other gaming companys to have create and develop on a engine from scratch. Whereas EA and 2k could use revenue from their flagships to develop games and don't have to build games from scratch
