New BTN Commercial Means New Coaches Yelling At You For No Good Reason

PrintIt's all right. Lickliter comes off more animated than Ferentz, as if that was hard (Step 1: have a pulse. Step 2: you win!). There's no JoePa moments, mainly because Gene Keady retired a few years ago, but I can definitely get behind this "sitting on your ass is awesome" movement these coaches are pushing. Not sure why Tom Crean decided to snort Shannon Hoon's ashes before filming though.
I do have to wonder, what with that "mood lighting," if these coaches are supposed to be in a locker room or some abandoned warehouse in a shitty action movie that probably stars Steven Seagal. Still though, I can't get over the fact that both our coaches are regrettably wooden in these things. Why can't we be more like Minnesota???

It's missing a COME TO PENN STEEEEEEET moment
but still pretty cool.
I have to wonder, though, why do I need an HD screen if the BTN doesn’t broadcast in HD?
MATT PAINTER LIKES CHEEZE DOODLES!
THAT IS THE MOST RIDICULOUS THING I’VE EVER HEARD! THAT’S EVEN MORE RIDICULOUS THAN THE ROUNDBALL SKILLS OF SLA-VA MED-VE-DEN-KO! EVERYTHING I SAY IS IMPORTANT! I’M STEPHEN A. SMITH!
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
And what's with Lick
…coming from out of a shadow like he’s freaking Batman or something?

Batman's team
would not be turning the ball over like this one does.

Last year maybe...
This year, they are doing a good job with the ball. They are something like 47th in the nation in turnovers – just over 12 a game. Hey, that’s Top 50 in the nation – not bad.
Is it funny only to me that Penn State's Ed DeChellis
is admonishing bathroom breaks?
THIS IS NOT THE PENN STATE WAY.
(memories of Joe Paterno “sprinting” to the can on multiple occasions)
May no act of ours bring shame
I've done it...
I left it all on the couch once, but it was just a fart that went terribly wrong.

Self-doodying jokes are always, ALWAYS welcome here.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Bo Ryan actually would be an awesome villain for a Steven Segal movie
And not just because I want to see him get kicked in the face.
This is where all the sweat [pauses, squints at cue card] pays off.
"Sweet lady fate, why dost thou piss on me so?"
Jeebles peebles,
which one was Lickliter? Who edited this, Michael J. Fox’s right hand?
I caught about 1.4 seconds of Licklighter before the seizures began.
Nevertheless, it puts ALL other conference promo spots to shame.
Note, however, that that particular bar is about a nano-inch off the floor.
If it's not too much trouble, search your soul--and then ask yourself if maybe I might have a point.
