IF it is yes or no question only I will say baseball definitely yes. When the choice is between an announcer with a below average voice and limited knowledge and an announcer with a below average voice and great knowledge I will take the second choice (Hannagriff) every time. In basketball couldnt give an objective opinion since havent heard Charlie call Basketball. I do know Charlie and I am sure he would never have called Jack Hunt catching the Blue Grass Miracle so that would be an improvement
But my question to you is why should LSU limit itself if looking for a first rate announcer? When LSU replaced Hallman and DiNardo it did not limit itself to in house choices only so why do that for an announcer the voice of the program why not do a nationwide search for a quality announcer. Would be the first one we have had since John Ferguson retired!!

Merely YOUR opinion. You don't get to make decisions like that, sorry.
Posted on 3/8/09 at 2:03 pm to LSUPhreaK
Actually many peoples opinion and again just because I dont make that decision you havent answered my question why should LSU not have a first rate announcer?

maybe 20% and that is reaching....
oh and his book didnt sell out either...
Posted on 3/8/09 at 2:05 pm to hotrod
Oh, and Hawthorne's singing makes my ears bleed. Why does someone like this think he has all the talent in the world when he practically has none? Who lied to him?
eta: he's not much of a writer either.

Jim Henderson is light years ahead of Hawthorne brah.
Posted on 3/8/09 at 2:16 pm to BeachDude022
I Agree, I was speaking of the guy you hear in the dome..
Posted on 3/8/09 at 2:19 pm to Tiger Roux
I agree with the OP. Hawthorne needs to go. He is such an unabashed homer it is just ridiculous. His call of the game Wednesday was the icing on the cake. Somebody needs get his smug arse off the air.
