It was announced Monday that ESPN college basketball analyst Dick Vitale will not be calling Wednesday's Duke-North Carolina game for the first time in 36 years with the network. Unfortunately, that didn't stop SportsCenter anchor Jay Crawford from praising Dick Vitale and the enthusiasm he brings to the Duke-UNC broadcasts:
“I think this game really brings out the best in Dick Vitale. I mean, he's so good at all the games, but there’s just something about Dick when he’s calling the Duke-North Carolina game that makes you want to watch.”Many viewers at home would agree. So, ESPN, tell us again why Vitale isn't calling the Duke-UNC game?
