Jay Bilas' March Madness Young Jeezy Tweets
March Madness officially ends tonight, folks, and you know what that means? It means less of ESPN analyst and all around trill guy Jay Bilas. Unfortunately, we'll have to find trillness elsewhere until Midnight Madness comes back around this fall—unless you follow him on Twitter that is.
Almost every morning around 6 A.M., Jay shares his favorite Young Jeezy lyric with his followers in his world famous "I gotta go to work" Twitter series. Every bar is retweeted and favorited and he has even dropped a Snowman reference on air. For those that question whether he's a real Jeezy fan, all you have to do is check how many songs he tweeted raps from. Everything from "Soul Survivor" to Freddie Gibbs' "Stripes" are referenced. 33 days, 28 different tracks. So, without further ado, we present The Complete Guide to Jay Bilas' March Madness Young Jeezy Tweets.

Soul Survivor f/ Akon
"Soul Survivor" f/ Akon
Date: 3/1/2012
Jay sets off March Madness with this jewel from Jeezy's second hit from his debut album, Let's Get It: Thug Motivation 101. Schooling these young cats that counting money is more important than poppin' bottles. Maybe that's why Jay's an advocate for the pay-for-play system in college sports.
Over Here f/ Bun B
"Over Here" f/ Bun B
Date: 3/2/2012
Yes, this was a Bun line, but who better to quote the trillest rapper than the trillest basketball analyst? This is why he does what he does. He's out here analyzing the shit out of college hoops to feed his family and get that paper. Just in case you forgot.
Mama Told Me
"Mama Told Me"
Date: 3/3/2012
A little message to cats trying to distract him from flooding the streets with swag.

He's letting us know why he's going to work. His homie needs that bail money and his moms wants to get out of the hood. Hustle hard folks and you'll fulfill your dreams.
And Then What f/ Mannie Fresh
"And Then What" f/ Mannie Fresh
Date: 3/9/2012
Jay's letting us know what the deal is first thing in the morning before we get any ideas. Cats really think they're flyer than he? Silly followers.
What You Talkin' 'Bout
"What You Talkin' 'Bout"
Date: 3/10/2012
Jay did have hoop dreams. In high school, he was a top 50 recruit and played and coached for Duke under Coach K. Now he's on the big screen where he flaunts his trillness to the nation.
Don't Stop f/ Shawty Redd
"Don't Stop" f/ Shawty Redd

Date: 3/14/2012
He's not done yet. Stop asking dumb questions, can't you see that he's busy flexin'?
Way Too Gone f/ Future
"Way Too Gone" f/ Future
Date: 3/15/2012
We've all been there before. A long night at the club always comes with regrets. Now Jay has to do a couple College Gameday's to make his cash back, gotta go to work.
Trap or Die f/ Bun B
"Trap or Die" f/ Bun B

Leave You Alone f/ Ne-Yo
"Leave You Alone f/ Ne-Yo"
Date: 3/18/2012
Here he's telling the ladies not to worry if he loses it all. He knows how much they love a hustla.
Vacation
"Vacation"
Date: 3/20/2012
SMH. Why are you guys hatin'? Let Jay cook!
Scared Money f/ Lil Wayne
"Scared Money f/ Lil Wayne"
Date: 3/21/2012
Lil Wayne spit this one. Jay must've really connected with that line because he chose not to spread the gospel of Jeezy as he usually does. He turned a disappointing pro career into a successful television one. Scared money don't make no money.
Gangsta Music
"Gangsta Music"
Date: 3/22/2012
Shots at Lee Corso and Bobby Knight? They better chill, there's a new sheriff in town and his name is Jay "Trill" Bilas.
Shake Life 3
"Shake Life"
Date: 3/23/2012
This must be his favorite song. This is the third time he's quoted this track during March Madness. We need to see Jay riding around and bumping this at ignorant levels before we leave this Earth.
Freddie Gibbs - "Stripes (Run DMC)" f/ Young Jeezy
Freddie Gibbs - "Stripes (Run DMC)" f/ Young Jeezy
Date: 3/24/12

Amazin'
"Amazin'"
Date: 3/25/2012
Jay's been commentating on college basketball since 1995. He speaks the truth. The god has been getting it.
Circulate
"Circulate"
Date: 3/26/2012
Do you take Bilas to be a Henny man or a Ciroc man? He needs to stop wildin' so he doesn't catch anymore cases. We can't get these early morning inspirations if he's in the clink.
Don't Know You
"Don't Know You"
Date: 3/27/2012
Just hope it ain't the cops. SMH.
Don't Do It
"Don't Do It"
Date: 3/28/2012
We'll set up shop with Jay whenever he wants. All he has to do is pick up the phone and ask. Better yet, we'll meet up. You know the feds are listening.
Hustlaz Ambition
"Hustlaz Ambition"
Date: 3/29/2012
The god threw shots at all the biters and clones out there while listening to this track off the Recession album. Jay is the definition of a hustla. Not only does he do college games, but he frequents ESPN Radio shows, makes appearances on ESPN and he's a lawyer.
3 A.M.
"3 A.M."
Date: 3/30/2012
This might be the last hot song Timbo produced. Bilas makes sure we know how swagged out he is first thing in the morning; he probably didn't even wash his grill yet.
Bang f/ T.I. & Lil Scrappy
"Bang" f/ T.I. & Lil Scrappy
Date: 4/1/2012
Before you beef with Jay you better be prepared. No fair ones. Bang muthafucka bang!
My Hood
"My Hood"
Date: 4/2/2012
And on the last day of March Madness, he awakens his flock with this gem. He's had a bankroll since he was 16. Toast to the trillest.
