Former Falcons wide recever Brian Finneran has turned talking into a career.

The Villanova alum will be part of this weekend's NCAA basketball Tournament coverage when he sits in the analyst chair for the "Villanova Team Stream" telecast of the semifinal game between Oklahoma and Villanova (6:09 p.m., truTV).

Finneran hosts "The Front Row," a morning sports radio talk show on 680 The Fan in Atlanta.

He well be joined on the broadcast by play-by-play man Scott Graham and sideline reporter Kacie McDonnell, who Georgia Bulldogs fans will recognize as quarterback Aaron Murray's former fiancee.

Graham, a former Philadelphia Phillies and Eagles announcer, calls NCAA games for Westwood One. McDonnell, a Villanova alumn, works for a Fox affiliate in Kansas City, Mo. She now dates World Series champion Eric Hosmer of the Kansas City Royals.

TBS will televise the two national semifinal games Saturday and National Championship on Monday. Jim Nantz will call the action on TBS with analysts Grant Hill and Bill Raftery and reporter Tracy Wolfson.

The Oklahoma-Villanova game will be followed by the second semifinal game between North Carolina and Syracuse.
