Just got a follow-up email about the event...

We have just learned that CBS is en route to Athens and will cover Ohio's selection LIVE at tonight's selection show event. Don't miss this rare chance to support the Bobcats on the national stage...and maybe be seen on TV!

Ohio Basketball will host its 2012 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament selection show gathering TONIGHT beginning at 5:30 p.m. ET. The FREE event will take place at the Baker Center first floor lounge, and is open to all Ohio students, alumni and fans.

Ohio Basketball’s coaches and student-athletes will be on hand to watch the 2012 selection show through a live television feed. Fans will be treated to complimentary popcorn and drinks, and will have the opportunity to welcome the team back to Athens from their historic championship run.

For those fans unable to attend the event, the 2012 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament brackets will be announced live on CBS beginning at 6:00 pm ET. Be sure to check your local listings for available stations in your area.

Not sure if they're just over-hyping it, but it sure sounds like CBS is actually coming to Athens. Maybe an interview with Groce or a story about Nick Kellogg is in store? I'll be there...the last selection show in 2009 was a blast!
