DETROIT — The NCAA and the Detroit Local Organizing Committee (DLOC) want all fans, even those without tickets to the championship games, to experience the excitement of the 2009 NCAA Men’s Final Four.
A lot will be going on with the final 4 game this weekend in Michigan, in downtown Detroit. I will keep you up dated on it all.
Final Four Updates from Ford Field
Tony Price and his son, A.J., already had plenty in common having both led their college hoops squads to a Final Four -- 30 years apart.
