Inside the Madness: Basketball, Brackets and Business

As March Madness nears tipoff, CNN Anchor and Who's Talking to Chris Wallace? host Chris Wallace dives deeply into the annual event that dominates the country, transforms non-fans into fervent NCAA acolytes, and turns the term "Bracketology" into a science. Wallace sits down with new NCAA President Charlie Baker in his first televised interview since taking over the organization. In a wide-ranging conversation, he explores Baker's plans and how he is dealing with the significant changes in college sports – like players getting paid and how to make the tournament more equitable for women.

Wallace brings in several stakeholders ranging from coaches to players to big-name experts, including Jim Boeheim, the Hall of Famer and former head coach of the men's Syracuse Orange, leading them to win the National Championship, and later named Associated Press Coach of the Year; TNT sports commentator and former NBA player Kenny Smith; ESPN college basketball analyst Jay Bilas; ESPN radio host, NBA analyst, and former NBA player Jay Williams; and basketball Hall of Famer and retired Notre Dame women's coach Ann "Muffet" McGraw, to discuss gender parity and the future of the sport.

Beyond the Gates is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington D.C., and in one the most affluent African American counties in the United States. Here you'll find a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home.

But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those that live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have "made it" and those who haven't are all trying to navigate life … and some with more grace than others.
