The recommendation will be reviewed by board at its April 29 meeting. Beginning next season, opening- , first- and second-round games will be shown nationally on CBS, TBS, TNT and TruTV. CBS and Turner will split coverage of the regional semi-final games. CBS will provide coverage of the regional finals, as well as the Final Four, including the national championship game through 2015.
