Didn't Jim get his start in broadcasting as a basketball announcer? Somewhere like NW LA??
Not giving him hell, just wondering about this.

It seems as if the game is to fast for Jim at times.
what fricks jim up is ford's lame arse attempts at being a color guy .. on radio in hoops, there's not enough airtime for a color guy .. just give me the play-by-play ... ford is constantly stepping all over him, adds nothing and has an annoying voice ...

i have no idea why ford's role in the broadcasts have expanded over the years ... ford basically does his job at LSU for almost free .. so i guess LSU gets what it pays for ... hawthorne doesn't have a college degree, so LSU pays him peanuts too ...

I'm pretty sure Jim hates Ford. You can hear it in his voice.

+ chwenty-one.
Seriously, you're right. Back in the 80's, if I recall, Jim did it solo. If Ford was Bob Pettit or even Danny Moscovitz, he'd be worthwhile to hear. He never palyed hoops...color guys usually have to have those credentials. It's almost a slap in the face to basketball at LSU. Could you imagine Ford doing the color for football games? Nothing personal...Kevin loves LSU. But his insight is as keen as any of ours. And like Rag said...not enough time for the stuff he wants to convey. Hawthorne doesn't make him any better, either.
