Come on, admit it. Isn't there a little piece of you that will miss the dulcet, albeit cranky, tones of Billy Packer's voice during this year's NCAA Tournament?

As we all know, CBS shelved the long-time basketball announcer to make room for Clark Kellogg. On the eve of this season’s NCAA tournament, Packer, 69, spoke with The Charlotte Observer’s David Scott about his time as one of the sport’s most recognizable figures and his newest project, a tournament-focused show on Fox Sports he co-hosts with Bob Knight called “Survive And Advance.”

March seems a little empty without Billy Packer to rile up college basketball fans, but the former CBS analyst hasn't completely disappeared. And he's no more subdued than he ever was.

Clark Kellogg's impossible to miss in the press room. The 6-7 CBS analyst would stand out in any room but Kellogg was particularly conspicuous on Sunday at the UNC-Duke game for a different reason.

He's not Billy Packer.

Billy Packer and Bob Knight have lined up a gig to do a series of shows on the NCAA men's basketball tournament — from a race and sports book in Las Vegas.

In an interview with The News & Observer's Roger van der Horst today, Billy Packer says he's done at CBS — and will not get behind the microphone for others.

Packer had worked a record 34 straight NCAA Final Fours as an outspoken analyst and commentator on college basketball.
