This Announcer

[Drcats2025]

As god as my witness I thought it was Calhoun. Missed the first half and was wondering what he was doing calling games

That guy was awful. Sounded like a Dicky V wannabe

You hear Nestler go wild wanting a basket interference on us?

You hear Nestler go wild wanting a basket interference on us?

No, but then again I don't have an irrational paranoia that every single announcer openly roots against UK every game.

Heard it very clear and not paranoia talking. He's an announcer, not a ref and supposed to be partial without a rooting interest. Par for the course with him.

Yea, Banana nose Nesslar and Yankee pete were getting off when Arkansas did something good. They simply pile on when it's inevitable they we are going to lose regardless of what kind of ridiculous call was just made.

UK players exit early to avoid crush of crowd:
"I don't see a lot of handshaking going on"

The point I turned off, like my post above, Nessler goes for a quick one-liner trying to stir the pot. It's his gimmick. Anyone watching College Basketball knows many teams aren't doing this and UK hasn't been, win or lose.

I'm sure Pumpkin head Pete developed a healthy disdain for UK during his days at Xavier.

“Plenty of time left..” 8 secs left down 4

I'd rather here Musburger say 'Attaboyo' over and over than listen to Nessler. Him & Danielson on Football just like Gary did with Verne Lundquist are a bunch of wise asses that talk ****. I didn't mind Verne overall but Danielson is awful. I like Ian Eagle, Kevin Harlan, Mike Morgan & John Sunvold, Tom Hart, Jimmy Dykes and even Dane Bradshaw isn't too bad. Common denominator with those guys, they can call a game without showing their biased agenda.

That was very unprofessional of Nessler to say that. Meaning as a professional, he should already know how postgames are handled. Lay off the tanning salon and prepare for the games

If gillen would have said one more time that Oscar couldn’t guard Williams I would have tried to choke him through the tv.

He also said that we didn’t need a 3 in that situation

 

[BBNinSC_rivals62411]

Did he really say it looks like Cal smelt some bad cheese?

I couldn't stand him either, but that was a funny line.

 

[know1]

I don't understand why people pay so much attention to the announcers. I'm not sure I even realize they are there.

 

[VA/UK]

He’s a Digger Phelps acolyte - what do you expect?

Gillen got on my nerves from the start. I had to mute the TV.

 

[fastpaste101]

I liked Pete Gillen. Something different. Did remind me of Al McGuire, which was fun to listen to even if it was an imitation.

Disagree. McGuire was way less annoying.

 

[BlueWorldOrder]

I got flagged by a bot in my own Facebook group for saying "id like to reach through the screen and punch him in the throat" lol

 

[Runt#1969]

Worst announcers if the year. Completely clueless. I never thought I would say this but I would rather have Bill Walton and I am not a fan.

At least I can fire it up and laugh when it's Walton. Amazing how much we see eye to eye when we both are, apparently, doing that!

lol
