Sports Net Pittsburgh Schedule

5 games each for men and women.  Glad to see that.

Since the Penguins owners are new owners that own  the channel, they really work with Duquesne (and RMU) to get games on the air.   All prior recent owners never gave us the time of day.   Go Dukes.

Re: Sports Net Pittsburgh Schedule

Is Ellis "the opponents biggest fan" Cannon back this year with Benz?

Re: Sports Net Pittsburgh Schedule

Regrettably he has been there for football, so we can unfortunately assume so.   But I am not sure. 

Here is hoping for Josh Taylor or anyone else.

Or at the very least also have Noah Buono on the call. Not only is he actually a Duke, but he’s always done a pretty good job.

Agreed. Noah is excellent on the radio.  When Ray retires I hope he is the new play by play radio guy.  I don’t have ESPN + so I listen to road games. 

I really don’t understand why they insist on Cannon that 99.9% of the fans don’t like.  I’m sure Duquesne has the call on this as they are the same announcers for ESPN + games.  I like Benz though.

Cannon has to go. This is a new era of Duquesne Basketball. Send off the clowns.

Re: Sports Net Pittsburgh Schedule

I agree Cannon is absolutely awful in this role as a “color man”.  His basketball knowledge is very limited, so he merely states the obvious.  His voice is very annoying and unprofessional.  What ever gave anyone the idea that he was qualified for this role?  Can we please get someone with some knowledge of the game.
