College hoops — there’s just something about it that’s addicting. It could be the conference rivalries, or the fact that it scratches a consistent weekday sports itch that other sports just can’t, or that there’s approximately 4,583 teams to cover and find something interesting about. So while it’s important to note that today’s exhibition game between George Washington and West Georgia might not count or even be close, it’s just another sign that college basketball is right around the corner. Most teams in the area, including Howard, Georgetown, George Mason, American, Maryland, and GW have their home openers in the next week or so. Remember: at this point, everyone’s got a chance to be a Cinderella.
