I usually try to be prompt with news regarding UConn hoops, but went out tonight with the wife and some friends and without the cell phone and didn't check messages until I got home. Anyway, as most of you probably know by now ...

The start time for the University of Connecticut men's basketball game on Saturday against the University of Cincinnati has been moved to 8 p.m. at Gampel Pavilion due to travel issues and winter weather in Ohio.

Cincinnati has been unable to leave for Connecticut due to heavy snow and is not expected to be able to do so in time for the game to take place at its normally scheduled time of 4 p.m. If the Bearcats are unable to leave for Connecticut by 2 Saturday in order to arrive for an 8:00 p.m. tip-off, then the game will be played on Sunday, March 9 at 6 p.m. in Storrs.

Please check UConnHuskies.com and local media outlets after 2 p.m. Saturday for up-to-date information. Regardless of when the game is played, it will be televised live on WCTX-TV, MyTV9 in Connecticut.
