    Awful Announcing
    I personally love watching college hoops. It's a close second the NFL, but they got some BRUTAL announcers. Outside of ESPN's and Fox's #1 crew, it feels like either Steve Lappas, Doug Gottlieb, or Bill Walton are announcing every other game. I gotta turn games off at times they are so bad.
    Lappas voice annoys the hell out of me, and comes off as not being very knowledgeable (I know he used to coach).
    Gottlieb has never been wrong about anything in his lifetime; or at least that's how he comes off as. Snob.
    Walton I liked in Celtic Pride back in 1996, and it ends there.

    I had my breaking point when I turned on this Colorado/UCLA game.

    bill walton is the most annoying announcer. Im shocked they let this homer announce UCLA games. I listened to him the other day against oregon and pretty much wanted to blow my brains out

        Bill Walton is the best. Him and Dave Pasch are best duo in college hoops. They need to do tourney games. Doug Gottlieb, on the other hand, sucks in general.

          goduke- I feel like Walton only does Pac-12 games on. Every time I hear him it tends to be a late P12 game, and I change the channel.

          GHSCREW- That totally sounds like something Gottlieb would do. He is a donk, among many other things.

            I don't mind Pasch but do you think Bill and Dave really get along?

              The best part of the pasch-Walton combo is when pasch humors/makes fun of him and bill doesn't realize

                  haha tailin I know exactly what you're talking about. Maybe that's why I don't mind Pasch.

                  sportsguy I agree, Doris is brutal to listen to. She has some knowledge but doesn't fit in.

                    Don't know if they get along. Genuinely, I think they do. I just enjoy them. And yes, Bill mostly calls Pac-12 games.

                      Bill picks one side every game he announces and treats them like god while the other team does nothing right. I hate that kind of announcing, it always makes me think the announcer has money on the game
