USF thoughts-is it just me?

Every time Gillen opened his mouth, all I could think of was George Steinbrenner on Seinfeld.
Especially when he was creating his own names for people (Lubin Rakim, calling Terrence," Sam", several others) Once I made the connection to Steinbrenner, listening to him was much more enjoyable.

I just can't get past "Kevin Oll-EE". It's nails on a chalkboard every time he says it that way.

I'll listen to see if he says we should trade Hamilton to Tyler Chicken in exchange for upgrading the HCC food to an all chicken menu.

Yes! He says it like Mohammed Ali.

Pretty sure he also said that that Lance Kromah was one of the players we lost from last year.

The CBS Sports Network telecasts are just awful. The audio levels were all wrong today -- the commentary was turned way up but you could barely hear the crowd or ambient noise.

That said, I did laugh when Gillen remarked that JC used to beat him like a rented mule.

Pete Griffin is going for the unprepared, drunk, ghost of Al McGuire sound, without the sense of humor or love of the players. Has he ever watched a UConn practice or spoken with Kevin Ali or the players? Does he know anything that doesn't come from a 3x5 card the sports information director gave him, but that he didn't look at until the first commercial break? Surely that's how he knows Lance Kromah is gone from the NCAA Championship team and that Lubin Rack-Kim came in. Next game, lets ask CBS for Brian Griffin.

Loved Al McGuire, one of the best ever.

Well in fairness to him, it was the first UConn game he's ever called right?
