How is Reid Gettys allowed to be an announcer?

[hoopsaustin]

The Big 12 "Network" is a disgrace to this conference, it is awful.

and i dont get it.. we are usually the top 2 in football and basketball msot years... why do we have such crap?

Maybe somebody likes his neat hairdoo. It's danged sure not because he know anything about basketball.

Did you hear Gettys say that OU should foul and put OSU on the line when we were down four points with more than a minute left in the game? What an idiot! Clark committed a foul. But that was definitely not what Capel wanted at the time.

Yep, he was talking about Washington wasn't even trying. That was the point the mute went on for good for me.

And the moron would get SO excited every time OSU did anything at all....it was pathetic.

tony nails it. reid gettys IS phillips 66 big 12 basketball. it wouldn't be the same w/o that goofy bastard.

I hate him and Dave Armstrong both.....I think Armstrong was getting blue balls over the Pokes comeback from 15 down.

I forgot how much Reid absolutely LOVES continuation. Every time something happens that could be continuation, he goes into fifth gear. Last year against CU, he went crazy because there was a foul and then the guy attempted a three about a second after from about half court. He was legitimately upset that it wasn't a three. KD wouldn't have even gotten the call.

Twice yesterday he made a huge deal about continuation. Bring Fred White back...I don't care if he's not a color guy.

 

[209sooner]

He has said several times that you can legally slap a guy's hand as long as his hand is touching the ball because then his hand is considered part of the ball. Is this right? Maybe I just don't know the rules, but I thought slapping a guy's hand was a foul every time.

333, haha he really does LOVE to talk about continuation. God bless the Big 12 network (and Raycom back in the Big 8 days). Fred White (always said "Spaycial and Frayshman" like Eddie Sutton), Paul Splitorff, Dave "WOW!!!" Armstrong, and now Reid Gettys.
