Between the above 6 hours on CBS, the other conference finals on ESPN that weekend, and the rest of Arch Madness, my DVR will be flooded after driving home from STL.

Um, yeah. I know the mighty, eyeball-grabbing, must see TV Shockers left, but CBS is signed to carry the game thru 2020 with an option to extend until 2024. (Spoiler-They will!)

Will much of the Valley game be shown? Most college basketball games go over 2 hours and we have seen in the past CBS will cut from the Valley Championship game to go to the Big Ten game. I bet it starts on CBS Sports Network and only Valley school cities will see the end on CBS.

The WSU-Cincy game could be a matchup of 2 top-10 teams with a league title on the line. That should provide a really good audience leading into the MVC championship game. This should work our really well for exposure for the Valley.

I never know what to think of Mick Cronin. I feel like he really overachieves with less talented teams and underachieves with more talented teams. On paper, they should be really good but past history with Cronin says they're a fringe top 25 team that makes an early exit.

Are we the lead-in for the Big Ten tournament championship this year (played a week earlier than usual to get Madison Square Garden)?

In that case I'm hoping for quadruple overtime as payback for Delany's 20 game conference schedule.
