Hot mic catches ESPN announcer comparing North Carolina QB to a lousy hotel breakfast

An ESPN play-by-play announcer was caught on a hot mic making one of the greatest comparisons in broadcast history to describe UNC quarterback Billy Edwards Jr.

The Tar Heels came into the weekend at 2-2 after getting off to a solid 2-0 start and had a tough test against undefeated Pitt.

A big piece of the puzzle for them was going to be Edwards' play under center, which has been up and down this season.

Without realizing his mic was hot , Hart could be heard making a very funny comment to analyst Roddy Jones.

Now, some people are going to think that's harsh, but those people haven't had the start of their day soured by a lackluster showing from a complimentary hotel breakfast buffet.

I mean, you're not expecting a brunch at the Four Seasons, but some of those perfectly folded pre-made omelettes, some biscuits, and a waffle iron in decent working order are all you want.

That's not a big ask.

Diners across the nation execute this every day.

And yet, that low bar isn't even achieved on a shockingly frequent basis.

You end up rolling out of bed and heading down to the lobby only to be greeted with a sad stack of off-brand granola bars and a bagel that you're 90% sure you saw hanging out in the breakfast area the day before.

So yes, I can understand the urge to flame a college football player after experiencing a letdown like that.

I know I would... although I would double-check that the mic wasn't hot.
