Sweet Sixteen Game Announcers

Wow! Love them or hate them I think all these are good.

I don’t necessarily think any of them are UCONN haters especially Mowins. She is always gracious and talks positively about GA.

I do agree that there are some better than others and some that aren’t on here that I wish were such as Sarah Kustok, Christy ThomasKutty, Megan McKeown, or Eric Frede.

But i also have to keep in mind that many on here disliked Doris Burke and I think she was one of the best in the business.

I would consider Rebecca a homer but only because she is so intimately familiar with the entire UConn WBB program. When it comes to being an analyst, she knows the pertinent facts about both teams and treats both teams as equals.

The problem with Rebecca is that she’s so paranoid about being called a homer that she often won’t speak up against even the most horrific calls against UConn!

I loved Doris but she became too enamored of her own voice and ultimately became insufferable! Before that happened though, she was the best along with Kara Lawson (who was even better).

Antonelli is a UCONN hater supreme. Her being on our game is dreadful.

Totally agree. I think she hates Geno more. If her broadcasting partner talks about Geno, she is usually silent.

I wish john Fanta was doing the game - or the UConn radio network.
If the TV would synch to the radio I'd use that for audio.

 

[Shenandoah]

Antonelli: ugh. Stop, just STOP TALKING! Who just committed that foul? As for Rebecca, I think that she is the best there is, except for when she does the UConn games, as I think that she tries too hard to NOT be a UConn homer.

Dakich on Deb A. cited above:

I'll bet the fans who don't like Antonelli calling the games dislike listening to Dakich even more.

Kind of tired of the endless "color" commentary during games and would like to hear more play by play, so I'm thinking that listening to the game on radio is the way to go. Gonna check to see how I can do that out here, far away from Connecticut.

 

[DefenseBB]

At least we don't have Carolyn Peck.

Yes, Peck is horrible but so is that ACC shill and known UConn hater, Deb Antonelli. At least we will get to hear how she loves the 2 region setup....

As a colleague of ours said to me-Mute and I retorted well, the was the second four letter word I thought of when I saw Antonelli was doing out game.

If its any consolation, Antonelli isn't a fan of Duke WBB either.

Help! I can’t listen to Peck and company on the Stanford game. They are so biased in favor of Stanford.
I muted it, and at times turned to the men’s Purdue vs Gonzaga game.
Go State!

It's actually sickening to listen to them. I muted the sound!

 

[Henry]

I also watched the Stanford game with no sound.

That's what I'm going to try to do. It's on Sirius XM. I think it's channel 203

So both fan bases will be in for a very long game?

 

[Carol]

Or the Westwood One radio network is doing all the games. If you have the TuneIn app it's on there.

 

[Hist-teacher]

Unfortunately the UCLA-LSU game was just as bad. Always like Rebecca but this was a terribly biased broadcast. If you were just listening to the game you wouldn't have known UCLA was even playing.

 

[Bone Dog]

I don’t know about the announcers, but the halftime pundits are a peculiar set. I love Andraya Carter — she’s smart and charming. Chiney is another story. She is charming when she lets herself be comical. And her knowledge of past great players is impressive and eye opening. But she can also seem out of it at times.

 

[Centerstream]

If its any consolation, Antonelli isn't a fan of Duke WBB either.

I believe if UConn is the opponent, Antonelli's southern bias shows up big time.
