I work in radio and my company does a lot with WVU and many people I work with were even talking about it at work today. I thought he should have recused himself from his son's game. It would have allowed him to enjoy the moment even more. JMO, frankly I'm glad they won - I have them winning it all! If they do and WVU wins the NIT then the Big East will have done pretty well!!!!
Announcers have no effect on the outcome of a game.
Georgetown fans will enjoy listening to Thompson, and those who root against them will be even more worked up knowing the Thompson connection.

But the game is determined by the players.
