I know this has been said ad nauseam, but that guy is such an enormous prick.

He doesn’t sound the same. I think it’s his backup.

When it's just one of them, it's limited.

You're use to hearing Preacher Franklin and Jeff Pack do that infamous "dueling whistling" routine when other team is at bat.

Apparently they are both there. Not sure why they aren't doing it. Maybe they were told to dial it back.
Vandy Whistlers are at Omaha

They are there. I've met Preacher Franklin Twice. Most recently after our series in Baton Rouge.
When it's just him, he does those short whistles right as the pitcher lets the ball go.

But just read that Jeff Pack is there too.

He does the 3 short whistles and his merry band of shitbirds *clap* *clap* *clap* now.

Only slightly less annoying than his original whistle.


And yes there are/were actually 2 different Vandy whistlers. One of them got cancer i think.

Yea. Preacher mentioned something about that.

I rolled up on his ride outside Loves Truck stop in McComb, MS Saturday night after our series with Vandy. My daughter was like ""why are you so excited?"
I said "we gotta get a picture with this guy!!! He's famous." She actually knows about him b/c she's my softball player and watches baseball with us.

For real though. He's a nice dude.

What is the consensus among Miss St fans on this guy?

They have to hate him, right?
