    They have zero chemistry, and he sounds bored, like he doesn't want to sit next to Nantz.

    Agreed on the chemistry. Kellogg says "Um, humh" a lot. I'm a Nantz fan, but I'd rather listen to Verne and Raftery.

    Can already imagine the final.

    "Rock Chalk championship! Kansas wins it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

    "Yeah."

    "Boeheim has again reached the mountaintop!! Syracuse is national champs!!!"

    "Yes."

    "Huggins all around!!! West Virginia is your national champion!!!!!"

    "Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz"

    "Go Ohio State!"

    Great 1st round. Maryland wins and Georgetown once again collapses under the weight of the most over rated coach in D1, JT 3.

    Come on now. Nantz's phrases are a tradition unlike any other.

    Oh, wait...

    I would just love if he made a cereal reference, let us know he's alive.

    "Break down the Walls in Lexington!! Kentucky is national champion!!!"

    "Two scoops of raisins, that's the reason my Raisin Bran is so pleasing!"

    Anything to liven it up at this point.

    As much as we hated Packer, Packer wasn't afraid to banter with Nantz, which could carry a game that was a blowout or ho-hum. Kellogg doesn't want to piss teams off.

    CBS will never make Verne and Raf the #1 team and make Nantz just do the NFL and The Masters.

    I hate Packer, and yet I would rather have is cranky ass back, so I can hear him say something that make the telecast worth listening and bitching to.

    Can't wait for the Nantz championship line prediction thread to start up again.

    "Orange you glad to be in Indiana? Syracuse wins!"

    "SuperCALifragilistic! Calipari and Kentucky...national champions."

    "Thrillanova!"

    Has the pillar of mediocrity that is Spero Dedes been noted in this thread?

    Not great, not terrible. Just kind of . . . there. Until a player goes in for a layup. Then it's either:

    "Off GLASS!!!!

    Or:

    "Did not use GLASS!!!!!!!"

    And that is the extent of his "uniqueness" as a broadcaster.
