College basketball insider Jon Rothstein joins 247Sports, will still appear on CBS broadcasts

In October, college basketball insider Jon Rothstein announced that his written content will now be featured on the 247Sports network. At the same time, Rothstein emphasized his continued presence on CBS Sports broadcasts. "CBS Sports has forever been the best place for college basketball content, and I’m thrilled to be expanding my role across the CBS Sports family," Rothstein stated.

Rothstein, a college basketball insider for CBS Sports since 2010, has been a broadcasting contributor to CBS since 2016. During his tenure, he has served as a sideline reporter and studio analyst. Additionally, Rothstein has been covering the NCAA Tournament for CBS Sports and Turner Sports since 2021. According to Adam Stanco, head of 247Sports, Rothstein's expertise and access set him apart in the industry.

"Our college basketball group was already fantastic, but adding Jon Rothstein takes us to another level," Stanco remarked. Rothstein's fans will have access to his national content, alongside team-specific coverage that is unique to 247Sports. CBS Sports Digital acquired 247Sports in December 2015, though they had been an official partner for CBSSports.com since 2013.
