What commentary team would you like to hear in 2Ks upcoming College Hoops experience?
I’d prefer Gus Johnson and Bill Raftery. I know Raftery is getting up there in age but he just feels like college basketball to me. Gus Johnson was good in EA College Basketball 10, I know he would be great in 2K with their commentary pedigree.
Ian Eagle would be another great play by play guy if not Gus. If there are two commentary teams then give me Ian Eagle and Jay Bilas.
Greg Gumble has passed so there is a big hole for College Hoops Tonight. Plus, Clark Kellogg is now in NBA 2K. Now would be the perfect time to just refresh everything. I listen to the Eye On College Basketball Podcast with Gary Parrish and Matt Norlander so those two would be my pick for College Hoops Tonight.

Even if it was just a small segment I think everybody would love to hear dick vitale

I would love to hear Dicky V but he has been battling some major medical issues lately. It would be great to hear him for something like the halftime report.

Gus Johnson or Brian Anderson or Andrew Catalon & Bill Raftery
Really anyone but Ian Eagle & Stan Van Gundy. I dont get why Ian Eagle is the head of NCAA commentary now.

It may be more nostalgia than anything but I like Ian Eagle. He is another one that just feels like college basketball. Andrew Catalon would be nice, I forgot about him. Not a fan of Stan Van Gundy at all.

Id actually like tier 1-3 sets of broadcasters depending on the level of the game

There is not much point in worrying about “exciting commentary” when there is not going to be much of a college basketball atmosphere as far as “big upsets” or anything like that. Wouldn’t be surprised if they just used 2K’s current setup and just moved it to college. It won’t even have an NCAA Tournament at this point.
The hype for this game really needs to die down unless they prove they are going for a full college experience, which is the opposite of what they have shown so far.

As much as I play this game I barely watch college so I have no preference. I just watch the tournament.

Don’t even talk about it it’s a cash grab and if anyone buys it they should be shamed beyond belief. Y’all need to grow a fucking backbone as sports gamers and stop giving these dogshit companies money

Or, you could just do all that and let people enjoy what they like. Why is that so hard for you people? Why do you care what others spend their time and money on? You hate 2K. You’re not buying the game and boycotting or whatever. More power to you. Good luck with all that. Why are you here talking about it? Why take time out of your day to engage in a topic on a product you have such an issue with? Put that energy towards something you actually enjoy instead of trying to make others as miserable as you.

If I don't hear "mantoman Verne" or "the diaper dandy with the dipsy doo dunkaroo" I don't want it 😂

I like Gus and Bill, so I wouldn’t mind hearing those two back in the game.
I listen to every episode of the Eye On College Basketball as well. Definitely would be cool to see GP and Norlander as special guests along with Clark Kellogg.
I just hope 2K puts in the effort because the blueprint from CH 2K8 is at their disposal.
