OT:Billy Packer

[nysteve661]

Billy packer died last night.  Not everyone was a fan of his calls on college basketball but he was calling UA vs UConn in 2006 NCAA tourney with Jim Nantz.  I can still remember some his comments: "when (Jamar)Wilson has the ball in his hands, good things happen".  And after Jamar pulled up and hit a jumper near the foul line he said "they can't handle him!".  Yeah, those were days.  Excitement and pride in our program and our school in national spotlight. Now, zzzzzzzzz.

I also seem to remember Packer saying before our game that low-majors didn't need to be in the tournament. Couldn't listen to the postgame to hear if he had any revisions to that.
