AuroranHusker 4,699 Report post Posted October 31 Figured he'd wind up with a TV gig. Good for Tim Miles, and good for college hoops, too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Faux Mike Peltz 298 Report post Posted November 1 Someone smarter than me should post the tweet from BTN that has all of his former colleagues talking about him as an analyst. Gold!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ashfan 82 Report post Posted November 1 Great news. I think that if he stays with this long term he will end up being one of the best. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hskr4life 5,424 Report post Posted November 1 17 hours ago, Nighthawk said: Any chance he could do a Nebraska game? I was wondering this as well. Fox owns BTN, so there is opportunity there. However, I don't think that Fox would do that considering he is less than a year out from getting the boot. Love the guy, would love having him do one of our games, I just don't think Fox would go there. 2 thrasher31 and Nighthawk reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
49r 6,579 Report post Posted November 1 My bet is you'll need to watch a bunch of Big East games if you want to see Tim. The first game he'll be doing will be Jacksonville vs Xavier on Tuesday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

uneblinstu 2,358 Report post Posted November 1 18 hours ago, Nighthawk said: Any chance he could do a Nebraska game? What I've heard is that he won't be doing any Nebraska games, at least not this year. If he stays with this gig and doesn't get back into coaching, which I believe he wants to do, perhaps that could change over time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Norm Peterson 8,714 Report post Posted November 1 I am betting he will hit it big with this and, if he chooses to do so, would become the next Bill Raftery of college basketball analysts. He's going to be highly entertaining. I know I, for one, will seek out the games he'll be assigned to just to hear the zingers he'll be throwing out. 1 Faux Mike Peltz reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hal9000 1,070 Report post Posted November 2 If he wants to be the next Raferty or Vitale he’ll need to develop a schtick, or some catch phrases, like “Onions!”, etc. Will definitely be tuning in. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dustystehl 222 Report post Posted November 4 Will Tim have any "Lance Jeter played football" or "Once Roby figures out how good he is..."-esque sayings? I can definitely see/hear him saying: "The aggressor always wins in basketball." "Attack. Attack. Attack." And an overuse of "quite frankly". Any other ideas?

And millions more he hasn't even thought of yet. He'll have no shortage of material, I'm sure of that. The key is whether he can explain stuff. I always loved Raftery because he could explain things so well. Plus he was fun to listen to. I think Miles will be a hoot and I can't wait to hear him do the color in a game. 1 dustystehl reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
