Ever tried to make a highlight video with Wyatt piece of sh1t voice? It's impossible.

At least Rose calls a good play well.

Only when Jim Rose is calling plays while NU is getting trounced.   fatty did one for a Roberson to Terry call, Jim Rose sounded beautiful.

I e-mail Jim Rose on about a weekly basis.  His responses are usually this:
(summary)  Jim:  LOL at your history compared to MINE!!!111  I AM Nebraska Football!  Bask in my glory!!!!!111111

yeah, that has been the sum of it every time.

No, Wyatt has never felt bad for someone's family or cried on the air....as far as I know.

My memory is fuzzy because it's been a year or so since I heard it..but I think it went something like this..

"No, don't feel bad for the University of Nebraska!  Feel bad for that young man!  He doesn't get to be a part of this amazing journey with Bill Callahan!  He'll never reach his full potential 'down there.'  Feel bad for him and his family.  Don't feel bad for Nebraska!  We've got a bright future with Harrison Beck.  But it's a bad thing for HIM, NOT a bad thing for Nebraska!"

Mitch Holthaus will forever be the "Voice of the Wildcats" to me.  Greg Sharpe did "okay"...he was a Mitch clone.

Wyatt...ugh!

listened to a bit of the nubbie game on sirius radio today - what a vivid graphic picture Rose paints in calling the action . . .

brought back vivid graphic memories of trying to get my colicky son back to sleep in the middle of the night 20 years ago - nothing but whining and crying!

Rose is horrid . . . if Wyatt could bring his 2003 CCG effort to every game, he'd be pretty good, but $hit he's all over the place most of the time.

Wyatt is average/below average as far as Big XII North play by play guys go.  ku, MU, ISU, KSU are all bad.  Our color guy is better, IMO. Can't speak for CU's radio guys.  Rosie is delusional, childish and arrogant.  He is a huge fan, so huskers should like that.  I would like that in our play by play guy, too.  Swain was better in my opinion.

You can't forget the classiest part when he predicts Freeman will get "carried off the field on a stretcher when he visits Lincoln".

Generally I can listen to Rose up until he refers to the Nebraska defense as the "Blackshirts" for the 800th time.  That usually takes on average 2 and 1/2 minutes.

Nothing like listening to the Cornhole announcers constantly refer to NU as "we" and "us".

I think they deserve to refer to the nub football team as "we" and "us."  Nub fotball is ALL THEY HAVE!!!

Rose is beyond bad. Zero objectivity, tries WAY to hard to add unnecessary adjectives and colloquialism's painful to listen to. But I actually like the Missouri radio guys call of a game.

QFT. He's terrible. In addition to having the voice of a twelve year old going through puberty, he also is a pretentious asshat. He'd much rather tell you the life story of the 6th string tight end than give you the down and distance or tell you the freaking score.

Jim Rose calling a long run:

Lucky sprints to the 50, 40, 30, 35, 34, 33, 32, 31, 30, 29 1/2, 29, 28 1/2.......they'll mark it at the 42 yard line.  Great run.  He sure can tote that chalupa Rand-a-roo!

 :lol: It's funny because it's true. He's terrible at spotting the ball.

SteveDave- They actually have Rose as the cohost of KFAB's morning show on 1110AM. It's even more terrible that hearing him call games, if you can believe that. Regardless of who the guest is, he'll challenge them and act like he's the expert on the subject. They could have a guy who maintains the equipment on a nuclear sub and he'd challenge the guy on whether the method he uses is the most effective. Just a braying assclown, and the worst announcer ever. Most Husker fans can't stand the guy. You have to give him some credit though...he managed to be worse than Kent Pavelka, the previous announcer, who I thought was unsurpassable in terms of suckiness.

You might be able to get KFAB in Kansas, they have a very strong signal. Give the morning show a try, it's almost amusing it's so bad.

I agree, that most Corn fans do not like the guy.

It's pretty sad that a program like NU has that guy, but I have noticed that many of the tradition rich programs have huge homers and not very good announcers as their play by play guys.

K-State has been blessed to have very competent guys like Steve Physioc (sp??), Mitch Holthus, Greg Sharpe . . . and while he's a big step down from those guys Wyatt Thompson, who is still better than many college PbyP guys.

If by better you mean worse then I agree 100%.  Luckily he is a step up from Rosey.  Greg Sharpe was my favorite.  Mitch was until he spoke at my highschool graduation (poor job).

EDIT my horrible spelling  :crybaby:

Wyatt has potential, that's rarely seen, and he is better than lots of pbyp guys out there.  If you heard them, you'd understand, and that's no great compliment to Wyatt, it's more of a statement as to how many poor pbyp guys there are.
