It is a Canadian basketball fan's panacea with no less than 55 games scheduled for the next 5 days between CIS and NCAA Division 1 teams across the country. The action kicks off tonight at the Raven's Nest in Ottawa, which has been sold out for weeks in anticipation of Illinois Fighting Illini including a walk-on named Jeffrey Jordan, probably the third best player in his family (the younger Jordan is supposed to be better). Carleton should have Head Coach Dave Smart back behind the bench and possibly 6'4" Ryan Bell after his stint with Canada's National team. We'll try to provide as much coverage as possible throughout the weekend. See below for the complete schedule with all time Eastern.
