COLUMN: A massive analysis on the MBB roster following opener

[madguy30]

That’s where TJ can press even more and bring in fresh legs and keep pressure on! Should be fun to watch how he keeps them all fairly happy

And if players know their role up front I'm not sure how they'd be unhappy.

I know she has ISU ties but good lord was she terrible.

I think she is pretty young and inexperienced. Give her some time to settle in before you call her terrible.

I'm not the only one lol. I was in the WRNL discord and on Twitter during the game. She was just reading off a script the entire time and it was obvious.

I know you aren't the only one. Even my wife said it. But there is often pretty inexperienced on air talent on ESPN+ paired with third tier talent. I thought her pacing in her bits were pretty bad but she was probably nervous as hell. I'm not arguing that her performance wasn't bad, I'm just saying give her a few games before writing her entirely off. Just like I'm not ready to write off Omaha as a fouling machine bust.

Lots of times these ESPN+ broadcasts are the first opportunities for really young and inexperienced talent. It's annoying if you're a fan of a team watching the game, but in the big picture of broadcasting it's a good place for folks like this woman to cut her teeth and make mistakes.

That’s what you want. Elite programs like: KU, Uk, Duke and Iowa have talent on the bench. This is why these programs have little drop off year-over-year

Did you just include Iowa with KU, Kentucky and Duke?

I'm not sure Milan has a good nickname yet. I believe he is largely going to be known in Ames and Iowa State as Milan. And that's as good a name as any!

Someone said Chill or Big Chill. I like those.

Yeah, she'll almost certainly improve. She's a college student with an amazing resume-building opportunity. She'll be fine.

I wish there was an efficient way to just hear our p-x-p guys as the audio commentary.

John and Eric and CW are much more knowledgeable about the Cyclones and the Big 12.

Have you used the Varsity app? I use that and then sync it up to the broadcast

Sure did….

Bravo! A phrase worthy of Raymond Chandler.

To be Elite you have to make it pass one game in the NCAA tournament! LOL!

I didn't realize she was a college kid at the time so it's totally changed how I view it. I'm sure she will get better and it's a cool opportunity for her.

So say I can get the audio on my phone or computer.

TV is gon' with the game.

What do I do from there?

Well especially since this is only on ESPN+, all you do is rewind both to sync up at the same time. Normally the ESPN+ broadcast is delayed around the same amount that the Varsity broadcast is, 10 seconds.
I've done this with regular youtube tv broadcasts as well.
