1st Month at CMU

It has been a busy month at Central Michigan as we put together a staff, worked on scheduling, hit the recruiting trail and developed our student-athletes. However, I want to use this blog entry to talk about one of the most important factors for us to be a successful program...a great home crowd!

Our staff is going to work hard as we reach out to the community and surrounding area of Mt. Pleasant to fill the seats. We will need our season ticket holders to continue their great support, past supporters to get back on board, and our students to come out in full force this year. A true home court will help us not only on the court, but also help build the CMU reputation across the state of Michigan and nationwide.

Worked the regular 2011-2012 season for the Big Ten Network both in the studio, and on site.  I appreciate the opportunity I was given to work for BTN and learned a lot from everyone there.  It is definitely a network on the rise as they continue to add programming that sports fans of any team or conference would be interested to watch.

Had an opportunity for the "post season" in broadcasting as I was the color commentator for HDNet and the CBI tournament.  With HDNet I found the staff to be incredible, and a corresponding great quality of broadcast.  

Accepted the Head Men's Basketball coaching position at Central Michigan University.  Have been spending the past two weeks interviewing candidates for the staff, hitting the recruiting trail, and getting a chance to interact with the student-athletes with meetings and workouts prior to the end of the semester.

Thanks for all the calls, texts, and e-mails!

Looking forward to the final stretch of the regular college basketball season, conference tournaments, and ultimately the NCAA tournament.  In the Big 10, 5 teams (Michigan State, Ohio State, Wisconsin, Michigan & Indiana) seemingly have done enough to hear their names during selection Sunday.  The next four teams (Purdue, Illinois, Northwestern, & Minnesota) have work to be done as there is a sense of urgency in their upcoming games.
