Each week, I'll write about the sport I love, college basketball:
• Boston College landed some backcourt help when Eli Carter transferred from Florida. Carter, who began his college career at Rutgers, will be eligible right away.
• Roy Williams officially received his contract extension at North Carolina. Congrats to the Hall of Famer.
• Tom Izzo, who should be a lock for the Basketball Hall of Fame, received a contract extension. He will remain with the Spartans through at least 2020-21. Izzo is closing in on his 500th career victory.
• TCU basketball is progressing under coach Trent Johnson. The Horned Frogs will have the luxury of playing in a renovated arena soon. The $72 million renovation is still in progress. There will be some excitement in Fort Worth, and it is about more than just football and baseball, baby!
• San Diego State is scheduled to have freshman forward Zylan Cheatham this season. He redshirted last year due to a foot injury. I also love that the Aztecs will play San Diego at Petco Park, home of the Padres, this season (Dec. 5).
