Charles Barkley is probably the only sports broadcaster that could not only get away with this but also could get people to say, “You know what? Hell yeah.”

As halftime rolled around for multiple games within the NCAA Tournament, it was time for analysts like Ernie Johnson, Clark Kellogg, Clark Smith and Charles Barkley to give their thoughts on the performances so far.

However, we can all agree it’s helpful to have all four of them paying attention to the games they’ll be talking about, right?

Well, as Johnson asked for Barkley’s thoughts on the Xavier vs. Illinois matchup, Chuck was as honest as can be in his response that he was paying more attention to the Michigan State vs. Bryant game.

Can you blame him? Even if you can, you’ve got to appreciate the honesty!
