Lunardi's treatment of Oregon St

[SoBeCuse]

Sounds like a team we would not want to face.

They are sort of a less athletic but more methodical UNC. Really good in the halfcourt. Still athletic for sure and yes we would have pretty much no chance against them, imo. They pass well and are very well coached.

Personally I feel Utah has more of a chance to go deeper than Oregon in the Tourney but that's just a gut feeling. Since I'm a USC alum I do watch these Pac 12 games regularly. I don't get the Oregon St. love either.

Has Walton been on fire this season? I havent gotten to listen to much of him. I saw this link at the bottom of an article today. I found it humorous and something likely nobody else in big time broadcasting would say. We've seen in other arenas that Americans do yearn for people who can speak like one of them at times.

I think he's great. Then again I don't necessarily need the detail of a broadcast spoonfed to me. I watch the game and find his schtick pretty cool. Meatheads won't get him and he definitely rubs people the wrong way. But, I know someone in my field who has actually stayed with him and I know organizations he has donated big bucks to. He's good peeps for sure. He's buddies with Pasch so the dummies who say Pasch must hate the guy need to S-t--u-.

Anyhow, this is the clip I ran into today(although its apparently old). I didnt think it'd be this hard to post. Walton inspires the heck out of me: thebiglead.com/2015/12/12/bill-walton-i-majored-in-biology-at-ucla-on-sorority-row/

I appreciate you saying that. It's nice when someone points out that we dont necessarily need every detail of the play by play fed to us being it isnt radio. I agree that it won't work for a certain type of person though. For me, I'll watch games I otherwise wouldn't care about mostly to listen to BW. I imagine I'm not the only one, and for the conference and the time they usually play on weeknights, I think he's a perfect fit.

Also well said.

They have some nice wins in the p12

All four of their Top 50 wins were home games.
