I remember him calling an LSU basketball game Shaq's freshman year. It was weird. I had never heard him do anything but football.

I recall him saying he didn't understand the hype around O'Neal - he wasn't impressed.

He did NBA basketball, the Indianapolis 500 and Monday Night Baseball, too, for ABC. Edit: And of course, the first year of Monday Night Football and I think he did Olympic boxing.

I was very glad he made an exception to his travel policy and came to the Texas-Oklahoma game his last year in the booth (which ended, of course, with the Texas-USC Rose Bowl).
