I like Hull. Not sure about Shane Dennis. http://www.kansas.com/sports/college...le2654554.html

I really like Shane. I think they're both good, but in regards to replacing Craig, anything is better. -

I'm totally in the minority here but I enjoyed Craig as an analyst. Maybe it's a "regional" thing but I thought he did real well. I don't know him or his family personnaly so I have no bias but this curious guy wants to know why some of you didn't care for him.FINAL FOURS:

I had been around Craig a couple times and had no issues, so this is nothing personal. I just thought he talked too much as an analyst. Analysts are supposed to add short bursts of information to what the play-by-play announcer is saying. There were several times where I would yell out, "Shut up, Craig." because he would go on and on and on and on.
Bob Hull and Shane Dennis are great choices.78-65Comment

Honestly, I feel I know less about basketball after listening to Craig than before. Not knowing the players' names is just the tip of the iceberg.Shocker Nation, NYCComment

Stuff like that is another really good example for when I say I don't get the impression these guys even like WSU basketball. It's okay to be objective when you call a game, but not knowing basic stuff about the team implies they are not actually the team you follow personally. I want guys who also like WSU the mostOriginally posted by MadaboutWu View PostComment

For as much as Craig butchers people's names, a lot of people do the same with him.Originally posted by SB Shock View Post

Lol - well for it what's it worth....like I mentioned previously it might just be a "regional" thing. I watch a lot of West Coast sports and I guess I'm used to the commentary guys out here. To each his own. :)Originally posted by SB Shock View PostFINAL FOURS:

I watched a lot of P12 basketball last year once I figured out Bill Walton was the color guy. He would talk about going to the desert and doing peyote, and told the play by play guy he should come out with him sometime. The p-b-p says "You always invite me on air, Bill, but when you actually go I never get a call." Fantastic, absolutely fantastic.Originally posted by AZ Shocker View PostComment
