Fails WP:LISTN, broadcast teams are not notable enough to stand apart from a list of broadcasters (which has an article already: List of ESPN College Basketball personalities). Eagles 24/7 (C) 15:32, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep - The List of ESPN College Basketball personalities is a different list that does not contain the Basketball broadcast teams. Teams on ESPN meet the General notability guideline.--23mason (talk) 16:01, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
KEEP Its a valid list. You can also merge the two list together. The way this one is arranged is far more useful for sorting information. Dream Focus 20:27, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Listcruft and the entire topic (broadcaster teams through history) isn't discussed significantly be reliable sources. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 20:41, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails WP:LISTN with insufficient coverage in independent source of the specific team assignments. This is suitable for Fandom (website). I don't recommend a merge; it's verifiable, but the WP:ONUS is on proponents to demonstrate that it's encyclopedic and not trivial.—Bagumba (talk) 11:37, 19 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Valid and useful list which does contain some independent references although the variety of reference sources could be expanded. Also the list is starting to become rather long so a good improvement would be to find a way to shorten the article whilst retaining the information provided.

Delete per nom. Way too specific to warrant a list: too close to the "one-eyed horse thieves from Montana" level. Clarityfiend (talk) 20:56, 3 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Per WP:NLIST useful for navigation and information. RS exists Lightburst (talk) 00:40, 5 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Lightburst: Do you find it independently notable from List of ESPN College Basketball personalities? Eagles 24/7 (C) 00:46, 5 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Because it is teams, yes. However a merge can be appropriate if it will not make the target list too unwieldy. Lightburst (talk) 01:09, 5 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
