I'm undergoing the season process of updating the links section at my blog. I know Gopherhole readers collectively read much more about college basketball and from more sources than I could ever possibly managage. So what should I be linking to?
 


Links

ESPN - Andy Katz has a weekly summary during the season
CBS sportsline
Fox sports
Yahoo college site
 

Agree on Katz. He has thorough recaps every Monday of the week that was.

Gary Parrish at cbssportsline.com.

Mike DeCourcy at sportingnews.com.

Luke Winn at cnnsi.com.
 

Though it gets a little repetitive - a visit to bracketology101, blogging the bracket, and some of the bracket sites should be worthwhile reading for Gopher fans this year. In some ways even more so in the preseason as *conference* RPIs take shape we can pretty much predict what the various B10 finishes will result in seeding wise. Last year the B10 got a huge boost by the big non-conf victories and while expectations are higher we have tons of tourneys to log key victories early in the season.

Rushthecourt.net is a good CBB news/rumor blog.


I forget the sites, but as we gauge our team versus the nation (and improvement from last year) some of the efficiency and sabermetrics-esque sites are always good fodder.
 


For more feature oriented stuff, try Basketball Times at Basketballtimes.com.
 






Big Ten Basketball Blogs?

How about good Big Ten blogs/websites? I know about The Rivalry but that is more football oriented. I'm also a fan of The Daily Gopher and Down with Goldy. Any others?
 

We (the Barnyard) have a blog this year

http://umnbarnyard.com/

The guy who writes the blog does a good job. The rest of the site is kind of out of date (last years roster, schedule, etc... you can blame that on me)
 





Here were some that I'd visit regularly while doing the Skinny (that haven't been mentioned):

Jeff Goodman's blog on foxsports.com

draftexpress.com (geared towards pro potential)

maxpreps.com

national hoops report blog

Adam Zagoria's blog, I believe zagsblog.com

Rush the Court

Beyond the Arc

Jody Demling and Blair Kerkhoff do a nice job for their respective papers (Louisville and KC) on college scene

Chicago Now (for Chicago college hoops)
