Gus Johnson. All he does is yell.
Bill Walton. He's obviously smart and knows his stuff but I think the appeal for ESPN is "put him on TV and see how weird he acts."
For me, it's Jay Bilas. As an analyst, he's OK, certainly not special. Where he annoys me is his constant pointing out all of the money being spent in college sports on things other than players (facilities, coaches salaries, etc.). He's not wrong, but he's a massive hypocrite for noting these things while at the same time soaking in a high-six or seven figure paycheck from the same source.

I completely disagree with you on both of these. If I had a top 3 announcers list, they would be in the top 3 for sure.

When did these late night guys decide to go polititard? Carson wasn’t like that. Letterman wasn’t during his NBC days.
Another vote for both Kimmel and Fallon.

Jay sucks. He talks out of both sides of his mouth. Rails on NCAA for "exploiting" college athletes, but yet he makes a living "exploiting" college athletes. Take a stand Jay. Fight for them if you really believe it.
I used to be that way with Fallon in the SNL days, but he’s grown on me since he took over the Tonight Show
Ben Stiller used to be the one for me, what a shitty actor. It seems everyone else has figured that out too though.
Danica Patrick, but her sponsors figured it out too last year.
Makes a living exploiting college athletes? You mean covering them and announcing their games?
Not surprised on anyone listed thus far, except COA drunk, I find him very entertaining.
