How to Scout College Basketball Teams on the Internet

Though you can learn just about anything a human needs to know right here at eHow, certain basketball sites are invaluable as the college basketball tournament approaches.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Visit NCAAsports.com. This is the official site of the college basketball tournament. It contains a full history and statistics section for both men and women, division I, II and III. A PDF file on the site delivers the NCAA rulebook, and additional links bring you to weekly polls and standings.

2. Go to the CNN/Sports Illustrated Web site (si.com) and click on men's or women's college basketball. The power of CNN and "Sports Illustrated" combine to provide excellent, updated articles about most college teams. A tournament focus gives the current rating percentage index (RPI) chart and a "bubble watch" for seeding information.

3. See the ESPN.com Web site for good headline news and hosted chat topics. Diary feedback from college players, input from columnists, audio and video clips, and a regular word from Andy Katz make this an essential site.

4. Check out FoxSports.com for additional features and breaking college hoops news.
