I have to disagree. I listened to an Ohio State basketball game on Sirius one day while driving, and their play-by-play guy was outstanding. Very knowledgeable with a voice made for radio.

I know they are hard to come by, but Jim isn't a guy that's "hard to replace".

His best attribute is that he's nostalgic for almost every tiger fan, not the fact he's an exceptional announcer.

He's a great tiger, and I wish him the best. He's been living the dream getting to go to almost every LSU game

Absolute. You no not from whence you speak. Him is the best in the business. Does all 3 sports too. He will be impossible to replace. So you heard a good call by an ohio state announcer. Big whipty shite
