This time of year is usually filled with watching NBA preseason basketball and reading and writing season previews. Unfortunately, the current lockout is keeping all of us hoop junkies from doing such things.
But that’s not to say there is no basketball to get excited about. This Friday, the 2011-12 college basketball season officially gets underway with ESPN’s coverage of Midnight Madness.
This year’s version gives is a look at 11 prestigious college basketball programs, including defending champion Connecticut and preseason favorite North Carolina. I have had the pleasure of watching this event the last couple of seasons and it’s truly a must watch.
