Norman Chad (yes, the analyst from ESPN's coverage of the World Series of Poker) writes a rather entertaining column called the Couch Slouch that basically describes his experiences of watching TV and getting divorced on a regular basis. His latest column addresses his dislike for most current college basketball analysts. He also notes the connection between most of the CBS analysts and the ACC, especially Duke:

Actually, Raftery is a CBS rarity; of its eight game analysts over the weekend, he was the only one without ACC ties. Everyone else -- Jay Bilas, Dan Bonner, Len Elmore, Mike Gminski, Billy Packer, Jim Spanarkel and Bob Wenzel -- played and/or coached in the ACC. Apparently, the ACC has the best RPI in basketball and broadcasting.

Plus, if you went to Duke -- where you probably learn bigger words ("perimeter") and fancier expressions ("dribble penetration") -- you get preferential treatment, just like in real life. Bilas, Gminski and Spanarkel all played at Duke, and Wenzel, as a Duke assistant, coached Gminski and Spanarkel. Even CBS's non-jock studio savant, Seth Davis, went to Duke and works for Sports Illustrated -- that's two strikes against him, but he seems like a pleasant fellow so I won't scuff him up today.

You might also want to check out his column from last week, entitled "Down With Duke" (I like the title, but the column itself wasn't his best work, in my opinion).
