ESPN College Basketball is a blanket title used for presentations of college basketball on ESPN and its family of networks (including ABC since 2006). Its coverage focuses primarily on competition in NCAA Division I, holding broadcast rights to games from most major conferences, and a number of mid-major conferences.
ESPN was the first broadcaster to provide extensive early-round coverage of NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship, prior to CBS, later in partnership with Turner Sports, holding sole rights to "March Madness". ESPN also covers a number of early-season tournaments and conference championships, and is also the exclusive broadcaster of the NCAA Division I women's tournament and the National Invitation Tournament (NIT).
