Class acts and the foundation of this program's turnaround. Looking forward to seeing them honored at half-time ten years from now at Crisler. I'll remind my kids of when we watched them play when they were just youngins.

Its safe to say he brings a lot of color with his commentary. Its just Jalen being Jalen, and I sort of enjoyed it. It's far better than guys who have never had his level of success doing it... like Dicky V for example, who is über annoying.

Who do you think dislikes Michigan more... Gary Danielson or Jay Bilas? I'm kinda curious as to why they so apparently go out of their way to discredit the UofM at every turn. We're they snubbed?

Bilas' best friend is Tommy Amaker and Bilas was livid when Amaker was fired.  I think it stems from that.  Add in the Jalen vs. Duke stuff from the "Fab Five" documentary and I think you end up with Bilas' detesting Michigan.

I think Bilas was a Duke assistant at the beginning of the Fab Five years, so I'm sure he learned to hate that team and Michigan during that stretch.

I thought Rose's commentary was refreshing. Too often announcers are too montonic in nature and don't really get my blood pumping. I could tell that Jalen was really trying. True, some of his thoughts were duds, but many other times he was creative in expressions and really hit some points home.
