The one sport I've been following and writing about here is University of Denver men's basketball. DU's coach Joe Scott returns with his radio show for its fourth year, beginning Nov. 8 from 7-8 p.m. MT on Mile High Sports Radio AM 1510 and FM 93.7, the flagship stations of Denver basketball.
Once again, the show will air on Monday nights throughout the season at The Pioneer restaurant, located at 2401 South University Ave., just south of the DU campus. I don't know why they don't move it to University of Denver trustee Joy Burn's Burnsley Hotel, I think they'd have a much better chance of developing an alumni audience for the show. How about trying it this year once or twice, then make a change next year if it works out.
Back for his 12th season as the voice of DU basketball is Mitch Hyder, who will once again MC each show, which will also be webcast live on Pioneer Vision located at http://www.denverpioneers.com/.
I often join Mitch and Joe and DU basketball fans at the Pioneer restaurant to ask Coach Scott questions, as well as enjoying the great mexican food. Fans that cannot make it to the Pioneer Inn are invited to call in with questions during the live broadcast at 303-297-1510, or send e-mails any time prior to each week's show to michael.kennedy@du.edu.
The Pioneers open their season at the BTI Tournament in Eugene, Ore., on Nov. 12-14, when they will face UC Santa Barbara, Oregon and North Dakota State over the three days, respectively. Denver opens its home schedule against in-state rival Colorado State on Thursday, Nov. 18 at 7 p.m. MT.
The Denver men's basketball team enters the season with a 15-game home winning streak, tied with NCAA runner up Butler and defending Missouri Valley champion Northern Iowa for the eighth longest in the nation, and have gone 36-7 (.837) at home in Scott's three years as head coach.
