Tonight’s game against Cincinnati will be on TV in the New York area on SNY.  This will be the Friars’ first game on SNY since Tim Welsh was hired to be a part of their BIG EAST basketball studio.  I haven’t caught any of his appearances yet, but I’ve heard he’s been great so far (which I don’t doubt, since he’s always had a great tv/radio presence).  I am really curious what he is going to say about his former team though — I don’t think it’ll be anything bad, but interesting nonetheless.  Stay tuned for recaps after the game!

Schedule for Tonight

7:30 PM ….- Big East Basketball Pre-Game

According to the Daily News, SNY has announced more changes to their hosts of various shows.

Included in these changes are new hosts of their Big East Basketball Studio.

Charles Smith, who played with the Knicks for three seasons during his nine-year NBA career, moves into SNY’s Big East basketball studio. He will be joined by Tim Welsh, the former Providence and Iona coach.

Welsh will be part of the pre-game, halftime, and post-game show that is hosted by Gary Apple.

Best of luck to Tim!
