• Crafton's November Entry

ANNAPOLIS, Md. -- Navy men's basketball associate head coach Jason Crafton has started writing a monthly blog for the website CollegeChalkTalk.com(.) His first entry was posted on the site this morning and gives Navy fans a unique, behind-the-scenes look at the life of a collegiate basketball coach. Crafton is the first service academy coach to write for the website.

Prior to the 2009-10 season, College Chalktalk launched the National Coaches' Diary Series. The first and only of its kind, the NCDS runs each November through March, with nearly 70 coaches - and counting - from over 24 different conferences contributing to College Chalktalk, providing monthly insight into their respective teams or tackling hot-button issues in today's game.

With a lineup of coaches stretching from the ACC to the WCC, the NCDS offers a blend of perspectives seen nowhere else in the world of digital and print media.

Crafton will write an entry for the website once a month with the next one coming out on December 1.

Navy will take on Texas in the 2KSports Classic benefiting Coaches vs. Cancer on Monday, November 8, tipping off at 9:00 pm on ESPNU.
