Agreed that the broadcasters on the neutral game were underprepared to call a Sweet 16 game.

I got the Guiford info from Titan TV! H!ey Titan TV you did a great job on both games

I agree. Great job!

Yikes!!! The guy and the girl????  You guys ara too kind to your locals. The guys that did the Augie Wheaton game were outstanding.  I had to turn the audio of the Oshkosh game off....just my humble opinion.

Me too. They were awful. The announcers they had for when UWSP played at UWO during the WIAC tournament (not sure if it was the same duo or not) were brutal too.

Granted I am assuming they are students looking to go into the broadcasting field so I'm sure they will improve with more experience.

I suppose -- but you want to have your A crew calling a Sweet 16 game, even if your school isn't playing in it.

Congraulations UWO men! You beat the Giant Killer Loras! Good crowd Good energy  Watched most of the first game as well! Great doubleheader. Nice crowd by St Thomas! Gilford has never lost to a ranked team this year! If they keep that up it would be a big upset!

Nice work. I didn't realize they went 2-0 vs RMC. Then Wittenberg and St. Thomas...were there any other ranked opponents?

Maybe Lynchburg; not sure if they were ranked when they played.
Yes, Lynchburg was ranked both times Guilford played the Hornets.  In fact, Lynchburg was 17-0 when the Quakers handed them their first loss.

I'm probably too kind. I didn't listen to much and the parts I listened to weren't horrible. I give them credit, they tried. Some may argue this, but it's better than no audio and listening to a bunch of screeching shoes.

I agree.  Winging it without adequate preparation on pronunciation, the roster, coaches, school history, stats, etc. is a bit uninspired ... especially if you want to distinguish yourself from others vying for a broadcast opportunity.  Just like a college team versus a youth league squad ... it's who is the best player and everyone does not get a participation trophy for just showing up.   ATD ... Attention to Detail.

They were the same and I have to agree though I'd probably tone down the "brutal" thing a tad.  After all they're broadcasters in training.  They definitely could have been more prepared for the first game. 
Was it me or were there no live stats last night?

I understand that the UWO announcers are students and in training, but....
The PBP gal isn't too bad, although I don't know if she played basketball.  The color guy provides NOTHING basketball related...zero insights, nothing about strategy.  Simply sounds like some dude sitting up in the bleachers that offers Captain Obvious opinions.  Sad if this is the best they have.

The comment she made about the NAIA changing into NCAA DIII had me checking to see if I missed something important today.

The constant criticism of the officials (including a few "that was a terrible call") was enough for me to turn them off (audio wise) ... and I do wonder if they hear from individuals associated with the NCAA (considering who I know was also watching/listening).
