Just wondering. I was thinking about it when I was watching Sportscenter and ESPNews this morning and getting ticked off about the UNC/Duke game being almost ignored. Wouldn't it be cool if somewhere down the line the tournament could become big enough to where a network like NBC could pick it up. I don't know how feasible it would be, but it wouldn't hurt Olympic coverage and with the women being right there a couple of clicks away from the men on CBS, maybe more people would stop and watch. Plus, it would give it a whole lot bigger atmosphere because I'm so used to just watching regular season on ESPN. They use the same old promos and stuff.

ESPN is the best thing that ever happened to WCBB because it values the property and has increased coverage over the years, both in the regular season and tournament. The broadcast networks don't care about WCBB.
