Old pal Gus received his itinerary for the first and second round games - he will be in the Mile High City. He will be calling the Thursday and Saturday games with first round match ups as follows -

Notre Dame - George Mason
Wash St - Winthrop (This one has some serious Gus potential)
Mich St - Temple
Pittsburgh - Oral Roberts

He will be paired up with Len Elmore of ESPN fame. One of the best analysts on TV. This is the combo of the tourney right here.

As for the rest of the sites and announces -

Thursday/Saturday -
Washington: Craig Bolerjack and Bob Wenzel
Omaha: Kevin Harlan and Dan Bonner
Anaheim: Dick Enberg or Carter Blackburn and Jay Bilas (Bilas is the second best analyst out there. This will be a good mix too)

Friday/Sunday -
Birmingham: Verne Lundquist and Bill Raftery
Tampa: Tim Brando and Mike Gminski (Nothing like a little more Duke love)
Raleigh: Jim Nantz and Billy Packer (Douchiest Pairing)
Little Rock: Ian Eagle and Jim Spanarkel.
