Billy Packer No ATM Card; Vern Lundquist has an iPhone!

When North Carolina won the national championship over Georgetown in 1982, Michael Jordan was the precocious teenager alongside tournament MVP James Worthy. His game winning shot that night was his introduction into our collective consciousness. But thanks to modern technology there are very few surprises now when it comes to college stars.

The NCAA tournament committee may have giggled to itself pitting Kansas State with its Freshman player-of-the-year candidate Michael Beasley against the ballyhooed second coming of O.J. (Mayo) for USC, but any hoops aficionado had seen both play well before this year, let alone read about each online. There are few secrets (Stephen Curry being an exception) in an Internet age.

Consider the number of sites dedicated to high school prep prospects alone, led by MaxPreps, which even shows the top 10 dunks of the season and gets deep into the off season training schedule for perennially ranked Mater Dei in Santa Anna California. Or Prepstar, or Prepnation, or InsideHoops.

Type "high school dunks" into YouTube and you get more than 1700 results. Want to see O.J. Mayo's high school dunks? No problem. What about Kobe Bryant's? OK.

Recently CBSSports.com invited me to a kick off for its annual March Madness on Demand, featuring some of the famed announcers and analysts who cover these games. I talked to Billy Packer (who doesn't even have an ATM card!), Vern Lundquist (who showed off his iPhone), Clark Kellogg, Jim Nantz and Len Elmore about this trend . . . and I asked them some basketball questions too. Check it out. Some of these guys . . . very tall!
