This Is March and One of College Basketball’s Top Insiders Was Stuck on a Plane: TRAINA THOUGHTS

1. When you think of college basketball’s biggest media stars, a few names immediately come to mind: Dick Vitale. Bill Raftery. Jay Bilas.

But if you’re a heavy Twitter user, the first name that may come to mind is Jon Rothstein. The insider who has 300,000 followers tweets “This is March” on a daily basis. The guy pretty much lives and breathes college basketball.

Rothstein was in Dayton, Ohio, the past two days working the First Four games for truTV. He was supposed to get on a plane early this morning and head to New York so he could be in the CBS Sports Network studios during Thursday’s games.
