Should probably just cut the tournament down to 4 teams now. ESPN should be standing outside his door trying to hire him.

Horrendous decision by CBS. You don't let announcers who trend nationally on Twitter (for good reasons) get away. He's become just a big of reason to watch the games as the game itself for the younger audiences.

That's so dumb, he's the best March Madness play by play call guy. He can make a play in game interesting. Please God I hope he doesn't do more MMA announcing.

Does this mean I don't have to listen to him calling Strikeforce events anymore? Rejoice!

I'll never forget this one. Love Gus. Should have some major suitors for his services.

I heard Fox is trying to lure him in to be the head guy for their college football programming.

Doesn't Fox just do some of the BCS games?

Pac-12/Fox are going after him hard

in case you didn't know Pac-12 and Fox/ESPN are rumored to have a 12 year/$2.7 billion contract in place

I'd rather have him stay with CBS. Just leave off the 'madness' in 'March Madness' if you don't have Gus.

They just signed a big deal with the Pac 10. Fox doesn't have the BCS games anymore. ESPN has them all.

March Madness won't be the same without him. CBS is dumb, they just so dumb.
