is it possible he can stop bashing the valley?? NO...on gamenight just a bit ago he was talking about how good UNC-Wilmington is and Reece Davis told him he was sucking up to the Colonial Athletic Conference after dising the MVC. Digger responds by saying the difference is the teams in the Colonial can actually play....

...but against who? Hofstra beat Notre Dame. Big whoop. Notre Dame sucks.

Digger is "digging"...Comment

I've have had it with these "experts". I'm not listening or watching any of this until game day. And even then, when they break to half time shows, I'll be hitting the mute.Comment

It's sad. I actually used to enjoy listening to him before he took on the Jim Rome personality. Sometimes I wonder if these media guys when off the microphone laugh about some of the things they say just to stir up controversy. What's the old adage? Ignore them and they'll go away. It's tough but at this point Digger has either proven himself an idiot or stirring the pot to make things interesting (more viewers). Either way it's not worth watching.Comment

It seems network sportscasters always put anyone from Iowa down. Did anyone watch the Ohio State-Iowa game? During 95% of that game, including the pre-game show, all we heard was how wonderful Ohio State was, how they had such great players, how much they had done, how they were almost next to God himself. I would have really liked to hear them even state anything good about Iowa during that time, but from listening to them, you had to wonder why Iowa would even bother to take the court. I think they had a hard time cleaning the pie off their faces to do the wind up of that telecast.Comment

Wow,
Under par, I TIVO'd the show and was just at the part where Rece tried to talk about UNI, and then Digger took over when I read your message.
G'town blah blah blah, G'town blah blah blah, UNI beat LSU and Iowa early lost 7 MVC games. G'town blah blah blah. It's unreal. He's still pissed about UNI getting in and ND not last year.Comment

Reece tried to say he thought UNI could be a dark horse and Digger went, "blech" as he swiped his arm across the screen. It's like he's trying to get one of these BCS conference schools to hire him again. Why do you feel like you HAVE to suck up to them and put "mid-major' programs down? MORON!"10% of life is what happens to you, 90% is how you react to what happens."Comment

I think Digger knows what riles people up and is going with it now.Comment

I hope for Mr. Phelps sake his on air comments are scripted for him and he is playing a role to get others like us around the nation up in arms and reacting exactly as we are and keep us tuning in to to listen. He has become a caricature, a "Dickie V" type personality. Matching ties and highlighters?
How about giving us some intelligent insight into the world of college basketball....oh and Digger, the world extends outside Notre Dame and the Big East.
If he is not acting and the crap he spews forth are his real thoughts then I feel sorry for the man as he is the worst "analyst" in history. Nothing he says is based upon fact and statistical analysis. He is someone's puppet, I wish ESPN would realize that its viewers are interested in content about the subject matter and not some failed, washed up coach poorly playing the role of devil's advocate.
In case you can't tell, I hate the "Digger" persona and have stopped watching ESPN's coverage of college basketball mainly because of it.
It is just bad TV, give me informed analysis or else just put some chicks in bikinis reading the scores.....their highlighters can match their swimsuits

Digger...
How is it that the Panthers' win against LSU "doesn't count" because it was early in the season. But, Cinncinati beats LSU 4 days later and you consider that a great win.Comment
