College sports are ruined.

And he just became poisonous to every NBA GM out there.

Dickie V can be a little (or a lot) over the top but I always got the impression that he is a genuinely great guy and I'm really happy for him.

Having worked with him during March Madness/Final Four for 4 years, he's as genuine as they come. ESPN did a documentary on him that came out a few weeks ago and it's on ESPN+ so you should be able to take a look. Yes, he has lost his fastball on game broadcasts over the last few years but the enthusiasm is always there and his passion for the Jimmy V Foundation as well as helping people reach their potential is pretty incredible.

Ugh, not really a fan of Ian Eagle's voice.
And obviously Nantz is an institution, it'll be sad to see him go.

Nantz is just leaving CBB, right? He doesn't call games during the season so I actually like the move to Eagle.

If Nantz only covers the Masters (and other high-profile PGA events) during the rest of this career, I am OK with that. I associate his voice more with golf than anything else now.

I like Ian Eagle. Dude just calls the game, no smarm, etc.

Here's hoping Nantz has tongue cancer.
