Anyone else love Gus Johnson and Jim Jackson?

[willie99]

Gus is having fun, a few quirky lines, but I like him. And Jackson doesn't talk all game about how unlucky our opponent is .

Refreshing

I’m not a Gus Johnson fan at all. Just call the game. Don’t need you name dropping and, at times, trying to act like Stephen A.

 

[MuchoDogYears]

Yeah but WTF when Can was shooting technical foul shots and they don’t tell us WTF is going on!

Gus is just blubbering on about who knows what and never shuts up and never notices that something important is happening on the court.

 

[WestHartHusk]

They were OK. But they never bothered to mention English got a T. No excuse for that.

 

[AdamaNation]

Love Gus. He’s just fun an engaged!!!!

Idk how anyone doesn’t like Gus. Guy is a legend.

Yeah I was wondering who got the T from Providence.

I'm pretty sure they did when they came back from commercial. I somehow knew about the T and I don't know who else would have told me about it.

I like Johnson and I really like Jackson...he lets the game breathe unlike a guy like Donny who refuses to shut up.

Never been a fan of Gus. Never will be.

“A body in motion stays in motion, a body at rest stays at rest. Newton’s Lawwwwwssssssss”

This was an all time line during the game yesterday. Felt like Gus was working on getting that one in all season.

Jim Jackson knows basketball, he always seems to be a good, unbiased listen.

 

[my2cents]

I usually like that duo, but yesterday I think they were talking about things and were ignoring the game. Gus also said, UConn and Providence have been playing since 1988 and UConn leads the series 32-20. Doesn't add up.

 

[huskeynut]

Jackson is fine. Good analyst. Johnson - do not like.

never mentioned on TV. only knew of it from the BY chat

[Rocktheworld]

If I never heard Gus Johnson again I would be perfectly content

 

[phillionaire]

Gus is a national treasure

 

[Poe]

Johnson thinks Newton is a lock for the NBA and talks him up like he’s a first rounder, so there’s that. Seems to be big fan with how excited he got for TN’s triple double.

 

[Rico444]

They're both great. I love Gus' passion, but I feel like he calls the game fairly too and doesn't just gas everyone up like Dickie V. Jackson is just really good, you can tell he knows the game but also does his preparation.

 

[microfich]

Still love Gus but his best days are behind him. He's taken his success and morphed into a schticker a la Dukie V. Shame.
Jackson has really grown into a fine analyst. Would never have believed that.

That is all factual information, I'm not sure what you wanted him to say

 

[jibsey]

Gus has a great voice, and both of them covered the game well in analysis. It’s a national game so you can’t be too one sided, but there was no shortage of praise and respect. I liked when he said “they just grind you down”.
You know how no one respected us un the past? Well they’ll all be on the bandwagon this year.

Going back to his days when he was purely in the studio I always thought he was solid. Always fair with us.

 

[dtrumpet]

I think Gus has changed his approach. He used to be pretty straight play by play, now he seems to see himself as more of an entertainer and it often gets in the way.

It seemed to me as they were fading out to commercial, the cameras were showing English chirping at the refs and I heard an extra whistle. I was not the least bit surprised to see Cam shooting FT's when they came back from commercial but I didn't hear anything from the announcers or see anything on the TV screen about it.

 

[DRBackup]

Especially Gus Johnson. He's older, so he's been at it long enough that he'll say what he wants.
