RE: Is there ANY TV for CAA Basketball this year?

CBSSN is carrying 7 OVC games while ESPNU has 7 more. That’s 14 games on national TV for a league with only regional interest in mostly smaller towns in KY/TN/IN/IL, while the CAA, playing in major metropolitan areas, has almost no TV exposure.
It is rather crazy CBS SN chose to deal with OVC over CAA especially after we moved our tournament to terrible nights for him.
Yeager took a lot of heat but the sad state of our media outlets would not be allowed under his watch
