I thought Marty Terrill was the play by play of the Energy games.
He does. WM apparently does the color.

Why is he selling TV? I am sure he can find another assistant coaching job and get better pay, right?
He is a great guy
There are a lot of top-tier programs that would love to have Wayne as an assistant. He is a proven recruiter, and if he decided he really wanted to...he would have no problem landing a job as an assistant...
I sat next to him on a plane last year and this is what I recall:
1. Super nice guy and much more personable than ever came out during the show with John Walters
2. He really likes Ames and really likes having his family in Ames
3. He was doing color commentary for Big 10 network
4. Seemed like he was a part owner of the direct tv business
5. Pissed about the D1 Scheduling allegations. Sounds like the first thing every potential opportunity he talked to people about would bring this up. Pissed that such a big deal was made when it was brought up but then very little was said when he was cleared. He said it was all a bunch of crap but when he would try to explain to people he was cleared they are like ya right...then why were you let go by ISU. I would be pissed to, he didn't just lose his job, the fact they let him go under those circumstances screwed him over for future jobs. Apparently after he was cleared but still let go someone in administration apologized to him and said he was getting hosed.
I didn't think he was the best coach and not going to be a polarizing figure which we all like, but it sucks the way he was handled.
