This is a good thing for our sport!

NCAA, ESPN extend broadcast deal 8 more years (including wrestling)

"The agreement includes all 24 sports covered in ESPN's previous agreement and adds coverage of the NCAA Division I tennis championships (men's and women's) and men's gymnastics, among others. It also extends international rights to the Division I men's basketball championship."

"Men's championships included in the agreement include... wrestling."

8 more years of wrestling championships on ESPN? I can get with it.

Honestly, ESPN coverage of NCAAs has been top notch the past few years whether it be the primetime broadcasts of the evening sessions on multiple ESPN channels or using the ESPN app. Since I can't attend anymore unless I want to give up something else, setting up four smart TVs and a laptop for "work" has been awesome. It is honestly my favorite viewing experience each year.

I enjoy the NCAA wrestling tourney that gets good coverage on ESPN in March and decent ratings
