Mike Patrick again....

[Huskyman1997]

Well looks like we have to suffer through another 2 hours of Mike Patrick... Why does is seem like he does every uconn game?

 

[BoatShow]

hasn't been too heinous tonight

 

[THC]

I just remind myself at least its not Jimmy Dykes.

I use the mute button on the remote.

I do the same but for Bill Walton. Absolutely amazes me that he gets paid for the horrible job he does.

 

[David 76]

AS somone else previously posted, as long as he keeps raving about UCONN, let him go. He loves Bazz, Boat & KO

"Do you put ice on that Mike?" BP
"Not me." MP

I like Patrick now that he is getting to know our team. He is very complimentary and his observations, though outrageously simplistic, are not terribly annoying. I can live with it. At least he praises us and shows us respect.

I agree and the fact that he's seen our team he's learned about the players strengths and weaknesses. Didn't like him as a Duke shill.

He's a Big Mac or Subway sub. Once you accept his mass production you accept the achievement of consistency.

 

[superjohn]

He's bad but he seems like a nice guy, he likes our team and we keep winning. It could always be worse with Jimmy Dykes, Vitale or Walton.

You can add Dakich to the list. Absolute worst IMO.

So you're calling him toxic?

He's just so overdramatic. Tried to build up a 20-point UCF beatdown into a close game a few weeks ago, and did everything he could to make Temple seem something other than bad.

That is his job.

Not every announcer is overdramatic like he is, so … what?

 

[mcs333]

Both announcers were very positive towards UCONN and Bazz/Boat.

Mean Gene Okerland?

I miss Dickey Simpkins.

Yup I forgot about Dakich, he stinks. I'm not a Bruce Pearl fan but he's pretty good, at least he knows the game.

during the 2011 BE tournament wasn't it Dakich that said we are hurting ourselves by playing 5 games in 5 days.

 

[mauconnfan]

Dakich yesterday when they were talking about POY and Katz said "McDermott #1 with Bazz and Parker at 1A…."

Dakich…"yeah but I think you need to add CJ Fair to that group"……WTF are you smoking Dan…….he does not belong in the same sentence with Shabazz or Jabari, not close.

 

[Rico444]

Since we're talking announcers, I have a random Vitale point. I'mtoo young to have wwatched the mid-90s teams, but I watched tcf's highlights of UConn vs. Nova from 1996. Vitale did that game, and he was over the top with his love for Calhoun and Ray Allen. It sounded like he was doing a current Duke game. As annoying as he can be, that kind of pub is huge for the program. Wonder what changed, because in the 2000s he would save that kind of enthusiasm exclusively for Coach K and the Cameron Crazies.

 

[pepband99]

And we win again.

Mike "Quinoa" Patrick.

(yes, I love that ad)
