Greetings from the Trentonian news room, where I'm finishing up my last pre-Christmas shift on the sports copy desk.

With the college football season wrapping up and the college hoops season now in full swing, this blog will be your home for all things college hoops from now until April.

The blog will be a lot like the Rutgers football blog, which was in full swing during the fall, but have more features and be updated much more frequently.

Since I'm The Trentonian's beat writer for the Rider and Rutgers men's teams, those teams will be featured the most prominently, as will other teams and games in the MAAC and the Big East.

But the blog will also have my weekly top 25 and -- hopefully -- a weekly college hoops podcast.

I think it'll be a big success, especially if you guys chip in with comments and feedback. I'll be happy to answer any questions, so bring bring 'em on!
