TNT Sports sideline reporter Jared Greenberg joins the Connecticut Scoreboard Podcast to take fans behind the scenes of covering Big East basketball and UConn games this season.

Jared shares how he got his start in the sports media business and what it was like when TNT/TruTV landed Big East games — giving him the opportunity to be on the floor for some of the conference’s biggest matchups.

We also dive into the craft of sideline reporting: how he prepares before tip-off, how much of his reporting is planned versus reacting in real time, and what it’s like navigating those in-game coach interviews — including his experiences with UConn head coach Dan Hurley.

We also talk about interacting with UConn fans during the Silas Demary Jr. Pickle Juice Challenge, his favorite arenas and road trips in the conference, and his plans for the NCAA Tournament.
