The UMass Athletics Twitter page just announced the extended partnership with Eleven Sports & NESN to broadcast a number of hoops games this year. The games will still also be broadcast on ESPN+ so no worry for the cord cutters. Looks like they picked up every home conference game that wasn't already being carried by another TV outlet.

and the ACC and Big East aren’t on line 2.

I hope so! Mountain West has historically had some pretty good teams. I feel like the A10 would have more to lose than the MW, right?

My recollection is that, in recent years, it (the MW) has been a cut below the A10. If RPI is still relevant I believe MW gains and A10 loses, overall.

MW is a tough conference travel-wise. Getting into Laramie and Ft. Collins in January can be a real challenge. However, when the teams get to the tourney they seem to have tough sledding against the East Coast teams.
