Gus Johnson hasn’t called a lot of college basketball games this season due to his soccer work for Fox over the last month. But he’s back on the sport that made him famous this week as he’s in Chicago to call four games of the Big Ten Tournament. His first tournament game turned out to be a barnburner and midway through the second half of Minnesota-Illinois, you could tell that it was building to a classic Gus Buzzer Beater.
Yesterday, Gus talked with USA Today’s Michael Hiestand about not calling the NCAA Tournament for the second straight year, something I wrote about over at Awful Announcing.
Even though we won’t have Johnson on the NCAA Tournament for the foreseeable future, we do get some gems like this one today on the Big Ten Network with Brandon Paul’s game winning shot at the buzzer.
Hopefully, we’ll get some more Gus-gasms before the Big Ten Tournament is through.
