I do not like deal worked out that let the sideline reporters bother the coaches during timeouts. The coaches need to be focusing on their teams.

Re: Sidline reporters

Aside from their physical appearance and the occasional injury report, sideline reporters bring no value to the broadcast teams.

Agree. One of the dumbest things the networks ever came up with. Liked billy D calling Spake out today on his first interview.

One of the worse ideas the networks have ever come up with. You can't blame Shannon Spake. She's doing the job she's being asked to do but they are often awkward and are always rushed

Once again i am sure the contract says the head coach must conduct two interviews a game. So you call someone else on the bench an associate head coach and send them over. This is what Duke does with Capel. K never does the interview. I believe Cal does not mind because he can spin the pub. He never really answers the questions.

Here is the deal. The networks are trying to be inclusive and get a female on the broadcast team. They absolutely do not need a third person but if they let a woman do either play by play or color, guys all over the country go ape****. This new model fills the gender model and men like it too since they were smart enought to pick models for the female rep. I know some don't like this but it really is the truth.

Kaylee was similarly called out about it just a few minutes ago.
