After more than three decades as the voice of the Final Four, Jim Nantz will call his last NCAA Men’s Tournament this March, and then Ian Eagle will succeed him as the lead play-by-player on CBS and Turner Sports’ coverage of the tournament, The Post has learned.

Except he isn’t. Still doing football and golf. Just not the tourney

Dang. He is really solid at hoops. Ian Eagle is a good replacement.

I like Ian, but Kevin Harlan should have gotten the semis and the title game.

About time. Eagle is great. And Nantz is a golf guy who has always been meh on football and basketball. Wish he’d hang it up on the NFL, too.

I like Nantz. Eagle and Harlan are both solid too. They have an impressive stable of announcers for the tourney.

Harlan gets overlooked again. Maybe he enjoys being the Nantz of Westwood One. Eagle is solid.

Nantz has become a staple of the NCAA Tournament and it always seemed like a great week (though I'm sure incredibly busy for him) to go from the Final Four on Saturday. Championship game on Monday. Then the Masters on Thursday. Eagle is good. But I've come to really like the Kevin Harlan/Reggie Miller broadcast.
Harlan is the anti-Joe Tessitore. Both can be obnoxiously energetic, but Harlan knows how to time it to where it not only fits in the moment, but makes the moment better.

Ian Eagle is excellent.

Ian Eagle is good because he’s basically a knock off Kevin Harlan. Harlan is better.

Wish it was Harlan but Eagle is a solid replacement.

I thought CBS should have made Harlan the voice of SEC football after Verne retired.

Harlan's westwood one calls of people running on the field are legendary. Dude's really, really good calling games too.
Posted on 10/25/22 at 8:38 am to cardswinagain
Good. I won't miss him. Kevin Harlan step right on up.

Ian Eagle is an absolute phenomenal successor The Madness is in good hands!

A chance for Nantz to go out calling his alma mater Houston winning a national championship in Houston
