First day of college basketball is finally here!
So after what seemed like an eternity since the NCAA crushed my soul by canceling the 2020 NCAA tournament, we are about to have college basketball again. With my work being different on many levels this year and the scheduling chaos, I don't know if I will keep up a daily schedule or not. Like the college basketball schedule, my effort with my website is subject to change at any moment. I may just do the schedules sporadically mixed in with my thoughts on the season occasionally. Anyways, here is what we have today (subject to last-minute cancellations):
