He’s gonna be sorely missed by the fans who listen to him call some of the best moments in the history of the tournament. Truly one of the all time greats

Jim Nantz = Jim Morrison (Fake killed him off). He is an Illuminati Fraud.

Shoot. Pretty emotional actually. I'm 48. Didn't realize I spent 37 tournaments with him. Thank you Jim Nantz. Thank you for the madness and excellence, good sir

Damn the end of an era is finally happening I didn’t even know he was retiring until today literally this is crazy I’ve always wanted to be a sports broadcaster and unfortunately for me that’ll never happen but to live my dream through some of the best to ever do it is a dream in itself for me congratulations Jim Nantz next step is the HOF 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

He's not necessarily retiring. He's just passing the torch for this sport to Ian Eagle.

Is Jim Nantz in the Hall of Fame? If not why not? I remember Jim McKay telling the world about what was going on in Munich in 1972. I remember Cosell breaking the news of John Lennon's death before there was 24 hour news. Those two men did their profession well on those tragic nights, but while Jim never had to cover anything quite that dramatic, he covered so many dramatic events in the world of college basketball. He NEEDS to be in the Hall of Fame.

Well done Jim for so many years. Bitter sweet.

I agree. We need to get this man into the hall of fame for sports broadcasting.

A Living Legend

So glad that Jim Nantz final college basketball game on CBS was called with UCONN winning the title. The team with the most titles in our generation gives the perfect send off to a legendary commentary. How fitting. #BleedBlue

I'm glad he got to call a buzzer beater in the final.

At first, I thought this was an episode of Arrested Development. I was waiting for the punchline. Congratulations Jim. You will not be forgotten.

He always went to the Masters from the NCAA finals. Hope he’ll still do that! ⛳️⛳️⛳️

Thank you, Mr. Nantz! Going to miss you!

And he always did it so fairly! I don’t know that he ever announced a game, when you knew what team he supported!

Thank you,Jim

All I have to say is THANK YOU Friend!

The greatest to ever do it 💯

Thank you Jim!

How cool would be to have witnessed all those championship games live!!! Wow!

“Thank you for being my friend”

what a great announcer!

Greatest ever to do it . GOAT

Keith Jackson and Jim Nantz are on the Mount Rushmore 🎧🎙️🗣️

He's still at cbs sports right doing the golf and nfl.

You’ll be missed Jim Nantz!!! My favorite memory of you is when you were there to present the Green Jacket to your good friend Fred Couples at the 1992 Masters!!!

He the only lead play by play guy that stay on one network CBS

And Keith Jackson

One of the class acts in the broadcasting business. Gonna be missed. I’m glad Raf finally got to do several final fours with Jim. Always thought that team would be great.

Thanks for all the memories Jim. This great tournament won't be the same without you telling the stories behind it

I cant believe this is gonna be his last one. True GOAT. I 🐐🐐

Thank You Jim!!! Thank you for being part of our lives, you are the reason we LOVE college basketball!!!

Wow. What a guy

You know you are humble when you hear such great things said about about and have a hard time keeping it together. Too many times we don’t appreciate what we have until it’s gone and the memories stay with you. Thanks Jim. You are truly all our friend.

I think on Monday his last act at the Final Four should be giving the cue for One Shining Moment.

Thank you Jim nantz

He was certainly one of the best to do it, no matter what sport he did.

I really think Jim should run for president of the United States. He is very intelligent, well educated, credible and trust worthy. He outshines anyone in the current arena and would bring intelligence and integrity to the Oval Office. Something that has been missing for a very long time.

Won't realize how much he's missed until next year.

He has been good for college basketball - - I’m glad that he is going to continue to do the masters

Ron Howard!

Jim Nantz is one of the best ever to do play-by-play. In only wish he stuck with college football instead of the NFL. Nevertheless, I will miss him calling the Final Four. Glad we will have him with NFL for a few more years.

Very well said, Ronnie Howard.

🐐

He will be missed

How do y’all think Jim would have done if he did CBS’s NASCAR broadasts? He was with CBS when they had NASCAR rights. If he could have done with a NASCAR TV broadcast, what role could he have played?

Is he still doing NFL on CBS?

As good as it gets.

On the next Arrested Development...

But we didn’t even get a chance to see his Nantz dance

GAG!

NO MORE HAIR DYE

Tell the camera.man to.zoom in at each end zone. We dont need to see the audience. Terrible filming!

Hopefully the old man is going away with him!!!!

I'm glad that he's leaving, since he knew and cared almost nothing about college hoops, which he seems to think starts in February. Now he will have more time to follow the moves of Aaron Rodgers or other NFL star quarterbacks. Perhaps CBS will find a Basketball Guy to replace Nantz ...

Nantz is terrible. Doesn't know much (other than golf) about the sports that he covers . Yes he knows a couple of the stars and their stories but never seemed to understand strategy or nuance. The NCAA Mens' basketball coverage took a huge step downward when CBS got the contract from NBC. NBC's coverage was so much better. So the positive of this year's final 4, no more Nantz!

Worst Announcer Ever next To Johnny Miller . It’s About A Tie . Horrible For The Game’s Of Sports. Because He Dose Not Know Anything About Them .
