Wouldn't it be great to hear... "Hi everybody, I'm Gus Johnson" It would be awesome. If there is any way that fans can influence who calls the game, please let me know. Gus calling the game would be incredible. Gus would feed off the crowd, the crowd would feed off of Gus. www.gusjohnsongetsbuckets.com/ |

He called the Chargers-Chiefs game last week. It was amazing. I loved the "Snakin it ouuut!!!!" call after one of the first half TDs. |

I've been campaigning for this for about a month now. It has to happen. It MUST happen.

he is a semi-regular on the 1090 morning show- even have the GJ award- for whoever has the best call on the network. Would love to have him , Nance, or Dick Enberg to do the game.

He is a horrible MMA announcer. I do not remember hearing him doing anything else.

There is a tripleheader that day. I don't know if that's good or bad for the probability.
Hopefully they keep Lundquist on the east coast to do the Syacuse/Georgetown game and send Nance to the showcase game Florida/Kentucky.
That would leave us with Gus.

He's been doing NCAA tourney games for years. It's what he's most known for, even more than calling NFL games.

His call of the end of the first Broncos game last year ("to Stokley, oh man!!") is a classic. I love him on basketball too, but I'm thinking fans on a message board don't have a lot of pull with network scheduling officials. No offense.

If the majority on this board are begging for change, you can bet that it is just the tip of the ice berg. The majority will just change the dial like they would for a bad song on the radio. Bottom line, it is all about advertising dollars to the radio station. Not knowing much about that business, I would think the advertiser's dollars carry most of the decision weight. The more success the Aztecs have, the more advertisers are willing to spend to reach bigger markets for tv and radio, and the more they can spend on the broadcast teams.
