It's not even the quality of the commentating. His voice just grates on me. Something about the combo of his accent and the way he talks
I can see that. I will only say that’s the way the rest of the country hears Northeasterners too so I stand in solidarity with our muskrat.

Yeah I'm not sure I'd be saying "I want Illinois to win so Iowa State gets tested." Illinois is the more dangerous team and I'd rather just get them out of here. Not happening though.
I mean by the time you get to the second weekend you should expect every team to be good enough to beat you on an off night. I don’t care who meets us there. Let’s just get there

Pete Gillen has that too (although different) - these guys definitely sound like Northeast big city high school hoop coaches.

Wow, Lampmann was 42/44 from the line until this week. 0/1 yesterday and misses the first here.

NC State just ended it making their third jumper in a row.

Cmon. Brooklyn is same distance for UConn as Charlotte for UNC, and Boston is even closer. To the victor go the spoils we earned ours. UNC earned theirs for first 2 rounds. Their next 2 are in LA.
But are they sending the band?

I can see the storyline now... NC State wins its next three to get to the NC. All along the way everyone reminds America that the only team to do what NC State is doing was UConn, which won the whole thing.

NC State has everyone's hearts and minds and DJ Burns is on the cover of Time, People, GQ and Rolling Stone. Commentators from SVP to Costas to Oprah note that It would be both historical and ironic if NC State won the NC over the only other team to have won 11 consecutive tournament games.

And then UConn wins by 30.

They won’t stay on floor with Marquette ( provided Marquette can handle Colorado, who has 2 maybe 3 pros)
