CBS is well aware of the countless complaints that were lodged on social media during its first round coverage of the NCAA Tournament from Boise, and the network is hoping to remedy the situation before Saturday.
The issue was first brought to light during Gonzaga’s win over UNC Greensboro at the Taco Bell Arena. With the way the main television camera for the game was positioned, it was extremely difficult to follow the action and almost impossible to see the rim and net on one end of the court.
Anyone in the tourney think filming a game from the roof where the baseline is the same color as the rim would be a bad idea? Just a thought. And yes my bets are losing and I’m angry pic.twitter.com/wsPVySYszK
