INDIANAPOLIS —National media have attentively covered Butler basketball throughout the 2000s, and some have followed the program closely. Few understand Butler as well as Doug Gottlieb, a CBS Sports analyst who was at ESPN from 2003-12.
Gottlieb, 41, who once led the NCAA in assists and helped Oklahoma State reach the Elite Eight in 2000, will be on the CBS Sports Network broadcast for Saturday’s game against Georgetown at Hinkle Fieldhouse.
Victory would propel the No. 11 Bulldogs (18-3, 7-2) into first place alone in the Big East and extend a home winning streak to 15.
