RIP Billy Packer

I’ll readily admit, I wasn’t a huge fan but he was one of the true voices of the sport in my formative years and when you heard him calling a game, you knew it was an important game.

I was too young to hear his work with Al McGuire and Dick Enberg but know how much people enjoyed that team. Really, they’ve never truly replaced him. Clark Kellog and Grant Hill are fine. Raftery is fine but not as sharp as he was in Billy’s prime. 

This game is over
