Pete Gillen-isms.

[CTBasketball]

As requested from the chat vs. Tulsa, Pete Gillen's crazy sayings vs. Houston.

"He's a real, real guy. Good around the basket with both hands."

"Tried for a Manu Ginobili, but he didn't have the Manu"

"Kelvin Sampson, coaching his lungs out. Terrific coach."

"Tremendous person too, only met him once, but I heard he's a tremendous person too."

"Gets a lot of coffee, but not a lot time for the cream."

"UConn basketball at its best"

"His game is like a box of chicken Knowles, open the box never know what you're gonna get"

"Gotta get the ball to Gibbs" Then he hits a three

He continued on with the "Chicken Knowles" shtick for quite a while.

I think you might be right about the Kromah part... Either way it still haunts me

I didn't here him say Kevin "Ali" today only the other guy said Ollie. Maybe someone in his family or UConn called him out on it.

I liked, "keep attacking Daniel, you're a winner"!

Gillen is less annoying than some of the color guys.

 

[Hankster]

He has me thinking too much of what he is saying. Trying to concentrate on the game and he is rattling on. Can't make heads or tails sometimes. LOL He reminds of me of a older Michael J. Fox.

Great basketball school steeped in tradition and Omar is a lights out three point shooter.
