Because ESPN was not broadcasting the entire ACC conference tournament. WTOG (channel 4 on Brighthouse) has shown every game this weekend. The game is on right now.

ESPNHD is broadcasting but not in Tampa. I can't get the HD signal for most locals so that's why it sux for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably right about them not coming back, and that's a real shame because it was awesome for a hoops junkie like me to get 3 out of the 4 days of great basketball. I'll say though having been to the last 3 C-USA Tournaments when we were a member of that league, the production value and atmosphere was better in C-USA. But the quality of basketball was certainly the best I've ever seen, just a great tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean we were never allowed to host the C-USA tournament? You have to bid on hosting the tournament and there was a very high chance that if we ever hosted the C-USA tournament that we would have lost considerable money doing so. Trust me there where all kinds of excuses for us not hosting but you could always count on going to Lousville,Memphis or Cincinati. Got to know some of the bars there pretty well over the years.
