We’re Talking Bas-ket-ball!
The Patriot League announced its television package with CBS College Sports Network. There are more games than previous years (10 men’s/two women’s) with a couple of nice features. For one, a men’s quarterfinal (March 3) and semifinal (March 7) will be shown on the network, as well as the women’s championship game (March 13). The final two weekends of the regular season will feature a “Flex Game”, where any of the Patriot League contests can be shown with the televised game selected later in the season. Three of the four Patriot League games can be flexed on Feb. 21 at 2 p.m., and all four can be selected on the final Saturday on Feb. 27 at 4 p.m. All of the possible games have already been moved to those dates and times.
Another piece of news came on Thursday, as Army announced a men’s basketball coaching change. Jim Crews departs after seven years at West Point. A national search will begin immediately, and the job has to be enticing as the Black Knights appear ready to contend for a high spot in the Patriot League standings with Cleveland Richard, Marcus Nelson and Josh Miller among the returnees.
That may be it for a little while for hoops news, but the Patriot League media guide is almost to the printer, the first day of practice is less than a month away and Patriot League Media Day is coming quick on Oct. 29 at ESPN Zone in Baltimore!
