I like Greg Bowser as well. Wondered why he wasn't selected by SEC.

Not a fan of Bowser. I wonder who is going to do the baseball games when they just stream them online.

Maybe because he's bad. Very bad.

Did you ever actually listen to him?

Eta: and I'm one who normally knights for commentators.

I remember one time he was doing line-ups and the name Y'Barbo (pronounced E-Barbo) came up, and he pronounced it - Why-Barbara. I laughed for a good couple minutes.

Greg has a regular non-media job, he just does the sports gig part time.

Dear GOD, I don't know that I can watch this jackass act as though he's the subject matter expert on all things SEC for an entire season.

It was my impression that Cox wouldn't be doing the replays any more.



They aren't. SEC Network owns all the rights to all 14 schools.

I've actually known Lyn for a long time - since my days as a student at Louisiana College in the mid 80s. He did the basketball games there then. You may not like his style (I know he's quirky, but what announcer isn't in some way?), but he's as fine a man as you'll meet. And loves LSU

Same here. Tune into the SECN and you have a 1 in 14 chance of seeing something you're interested in. With Cox, you knew it would be about LSU.

well consider the fact that they hired Finebaum...

watched him a couple of times since they kicked off, thought he was okay.

I've grown to like Rollins and Bowser. I think they've both gotten better over the years.

Have known Lynn since Northwestern in early 70's. He is like the ole Dizzy Dean, whom I think influenced his style. The upper comment is right, he is a nice person and gentlemen.
