For anyone wondering it seems that the radio deal this year pretty much continues as it has been. Broadcasts on ESPN 980 AM and SportsTalk570 and of course every hooker in the lane and trip to the sin stripe will be called by Rich Chvotkin in his 38th season. My personal favorite is when he tells us that the ball is being brought up the court either right or left "across your radio dial". www.guhoyas.com/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/110111aac.html

Predictable news, but welcome just the same. With all this nonsense about conferences and TV packages, it's great to know we can still count on Rich on the Radio. Rich is one-of-a-kind and a Hoya treasure.

"Hooker in the lane" is timeless. The visual is priceless...

Good to hear--I have enjoyed the times I have to rely on "internet Rich" to provide my Hoya fix and it is good to have him for another season!

I always sync Rich to the TV broadcast. How? I could see doing that if he was slightly behind, but isn't Rich usually ahead of the TV feed? I'd much prefer listening to him, so let me know if you can.

I'd much prefer listening to him, so let me know if you can. I use the internet broadcast, which is always slightly behind. I run the sound from the laptop to the sound system for the tv, then pause/ffwd the DVR as necessary. Sometimes, slight adjustments are necessary after TO's.

My personal favorite is when he tells us that the ball is being brought up the court either right or left "across your radio dial". www.guhoyas.com/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/110111aac.html' For what it's worth, I have enjoyed listening to the Hoya feed when the games aren't televised down here. I have noticed that the Hoya radio broadcasts are vastly superior to the Gator homer that does UF games. Mick Hubert is just not very good. But the ball is being brought up the court either right or left "across your radio dial is one of his catch phrases as well. The worst though, is his overuse of "Oh My," that he stole from Dick Enberg I thik. But Mick will say it with enthusiasm probably 30 or 40 times a game. In any case, Hoya radio is actually enjoyable. But I hadn't really thought of syncing the radio to the TV when the games are televised. Our guys are so bad, there was never any motivation to do so. But I'm definitely going to give it a shot with Gtown games.
