The patron saint of March Madness buzzer-beaters will not be calling the NCAA tournament next year.

SI.com has learned that CBS recently parted ways with Gus Johnson, a play-by-play mainstay on its college basketball coverage for 16 years, after the two sides could not agree on a new deal. Johnson has also worked as a play-by-play voice for the network's NFL coverage since 1998.

BITB is going to start a letter writing campaign to CBS when he hears this news.  He was saying early March that CBS should demote Nance and give the spot to Gus(calling the FF)

Can only hope that Gus replaces Bobby on big monday, or falls all the way to Fox Sports Midwest so that he can call half of our games.

Oh man, I'm torn on this one.  Not a big fan of hats being worn sideways.  Even if it is Gus Johnson wearing a hat sideways.
