Syracuse University men's basketball head coach Jim Boeheim will not coach in the 2015 NCAA Tournament thanks to the university's self-imposed ban on postseason play due to NCAA infractions.

The ban brings about an unusual circumstance for Boeheim and his team as they know exactly when their 2014-15 season will end: March 7 after they play N.C. State in Raleigh, N.C.

So how will Boeheim fill the free time during March? Perhaps a short-term gig in broadcasting is in his future.

Boeheim said on his weekly radio show on TK99 Thursday night that he is considering doing some broadcasting during March Madness after a caller asked who his favorite broadcaster is (Jay Bilas, Mike Tirico, Sean McDonough and Bill Raftery were mentioned) and host Glenn "Gomez" Adams asked if he is considering getting into it himself.

Boeheim did not mention any specific outlet that has offered him a broadcasting job during the tournament, but he is certainly qualified.

Boeheim watches a lot of college basketball during the season, has been a frequent voter in the USA Today coaches' poll and is never shy to offer an opinion on the game.

He also does several media appearances per week during the basketball season and is often a sought-after guest yearly for national radio shows and "PTI" on ESPN during the tournament.

Or is it more appropriate for Boeheim to sit it out considering Syracuse's postseason ban from the tournament?
