While we are on a spending spree can we get someone that can call a game properly on the radio? Jacob has to correct him and he misses calls all the time. He can go with Kelly!

Seems to me that Hawthorne made mistakes too.

I don’t remember his name, but the Norrthwestern State play-by-play guy was much better during their auditions.

When he was signing off tonight he stated the LSU finished the season 7-5, 5-3 in conference.

I was driving during the first half today and, sadly, I have to agree. At best, he was way late in describing the play, but more often, he didn't really describe it at all. Or he would start to say what happened and then had to correct each thing he said - play description, then better description of what really happened.. player involved, then correct that.. and yardage was ALL over the place.
I guess he has a nice voice but that seems to be his only skill.

He is so so late describing baseball plays that I have to listen to crowd to know what is happening

To be fair, it was hard to describe what I saw them doing watching on my tv

Hawthorne got names wrong. Mistimed his emotion. But he always set up the play, called the play, then described the outcome the same way every play. Blair does none of it consistently which makes him extremely difficult to follow.

What’s so difficult to understand? He gets paid to call the game as it’s happening and messes up all the time. Kevin Harlan does the radio calls for the NFL on Monday night football and is absolutely awesome to listen to. You can visualize the plays as he calls it making it awesome to listen too. Then you can truly hear how bad Blair really is.

Could be worse. Have you listened to Mike Hoss?

Hawthorne would say there’s a huge whole, wow, the RB was tackled for a gain of 1 yard. It’s now 2nd and 9

Lyn Rollins was right there. A true national treasure with GOAT expressions.

So is Hunt Palmer, Marvin Favorite and Brandon Taylor.
The last 2 can barely speak English. SAD

Hawthorn was the all time worst. He was just terrible. "Jack Hunt! Jack Hunt!"

To me, the GOAT and voice of the Tigers will always be John Ferguson.
