What's Going On?

College hoops tidbits from around the Internet ...

ESPN can't stop pimping it's much-ballyhooed "swap" of announcers, with Dick Vitale and Dan Shulman calling an NBA game and Jeff Van Gundy, Mark Jackson and Mike Tirico calling Davidson at Duke. Snooze.

CBS, though, has a projecting the field and projecting the seeds feature up today. Always enjoyable for those who are into that stuff ... ya know, like me ...

SI.com's Luke Winn looks at contenders and pretenders.

Rivals has new position and coaching rankings up.

And I already brought you the deliciousness. And no, that is not a photo of Wayne Gretzky. Read the damn post.

ESPN Gives Pitt Some Love

Shocking, I know, given the recent trend among media outlets to completely avoid Pitt in any discussions of title contenders, but Dana O'Neil writes a nice but more than predictable story about Pitt.

Will anyone figure out that Pitt is more than just a grind-you-down defensive team this year? Early signs point to no. But the Big Three will come alive in Big East play.
