Well the broadcast was comical

[Scoe]

Comically bad that is, mentioning the loss of OLLLANDER as the second name after Shabazz. Then later in the broadcast pronouncing Hamilton's name as HUMMELTIN, wow and I thought Mike Patrick was bad.

 

[Bryan Lord]

I thought Gillem was pretty sharp tonight, not sure what game you were watching. Wonder if he has any interest in coaching again.

 

[BoatShow]

"UConn back on top with their first lead" was great.

Gillen can't even correctly pronounce a fairly easy name like Ollie. Somehow he thinks it's pronounced ah-LEE, as in Muhammad Ali. He's an awful announcer. He should go back to coaching.

 

[Bryan Lord]

He was awful at that too by all accounts.

 

[tcf15]

Gillen was awful last year, too. I remember he called the SMU game at Gampel last year and listening to him during that game was terrible.

 

[Goat]

'Hummeltin' sounds like Sir Charles. That's turrible.

A lot of posters are calling KO worse things in other posts.

The idiots always surface after a loss. As always, we exaggerate losses and victories. We were awful but pretty good before this game. Many have a short memory.

 

[Kembacity]

I cant stand calling our coach Ali... Pete Gillen could have a pet dog that he calls Ollie just fine every day of the week but the cameras roll and suddenly were coached by KevHammed Ali

 

[BugsyCT]

Gillen called this an upset despite 1) Tulsa was favored and 2) we're not nearly as good as last year without Bazz, DD, Giffey & Olander. Guess Tulsa gets to have it both ways. How perfect for them.

That broadcast team was a hoot - reminiscent of early Big East days when we were called "the UConn".

 

[Bryan Lord]

If we still had olander tho..
