No Gus Johnson for NCAA Tourney Next Year

Gus Johnson, CBS Sports part ways after 16 years - Richard Deitsch - SI.com

That stinks.

Hopefully B1G fans will still get Gus on the BTN

Huge Gus fan and hope the BTN locks him up for more games (if that is possible), but by the second round of the tourney, I was beyond burned on out on his BWW commercial. Did that thing run every commercial break for the entire tourney or what? Gus gave us a lot of props despite our struggles and he always calls a great game.

CBS and Jim Nance must not have liked all of the "Gus should be doing the title game" talk from this past season...what a load of crap!

Or the TNT TBS deal includes too many of the NBA analyst's bloated salaries.

If he starts working Fox college football games, he'll get to call our BiG championship game.

Gus is the best announcer in the business today. Even old folks like him too (me), not just the younger generation.

That sucks....

I like Gus and wish he wouldn't leave CBS, but he was pretty bad this tournament. He tries too hard to make drama where there isn't any, he needs to stop working on getting his catch phrases in and pay closer attention to the game. He was brutal announcing the Florida-BYU game.

I wouldnt mind hearing Gus Johnson and Kenyon Murray announcing the Iowa games.

Oh well CBS's loss Glad he got out of there! He'll go bigger and better, screw CBS anyway lol

Theyre all about the SEC, i wonder if his BTN contract had anything to do with it?
