Kenny Smith, Charles Barkley to join NCAA coverage

Posted Nov 17, 2010
Look out, March Madness. Charles Barkley is coming. CBS and Turner executives confirmed Tuesday that the brash Hall of Famer and other big names from TNT’s NBA broadcasts would be part of their joint coverage of the NCAA tournament starting this season. Expect Marv Albert to call some early round games and Barkley and Kenny Smith to offer analysis from the studio under the 14-year, $10.8 billion deal the two companies signed in April.
