Does he do any announcing other than the SEC tournament? I enjoy his work in Hoover.

Yes, he does several SEC games throughout the year.

Great tiger. One of the best ever players. Might be a good announcer, but really is kind of a prick irl.

I’ve seen him in the SEC studio after games but not calling any other games. He’s very knowledgeable but Ben is one of the best in college baseball. He also had a lot more experience.

McDonald, Walker, Burke, Peterson and Dellucci combine for 11 All-American Teams. There some talent in the booth.

I keep wondering why he doesn’t tell them how to correctly pronounce
Broussard. You know he knows how it is supposed to be

I don't think he's very good. But Ben McDonald wasn't either when he started. Now Ben McDonald is very good. Maybe Todd Walker can get better if ESPN expands his role.

Ben and Todd are both really good. Why do people feel the need to compare the two? Just be glad we get to listen to a couple of LSU greats on the broadcasts.

Todd Walker comes across as a bit of a pill, then, suddenly he drops a line, very dry, and it has me laughing aloud. I think he and K.P. are beginning to warm up to each other and feed off of each other to make for some fun broadcasting.

I thought the college major bit that entire half inning was funny as hell, and they seemed to enjoy it, too. They were likely giving each other the eye in the booth.

I believe CPM will do a good job calling the games next year for ESPN while he watches LSU makes a late season run for a CWS trophy

Todd Walker as an announcer
I believe Todd Walker goes too far many times trying not to be an LSU 'homer.'

He tends to criticize LSU and praise our opponent in an apparent attempt to be "fair and balanced."

Todd looks more and more like Saban the older he gets.

He is so much better than most.
I think he and Ben should do a game together.
