Palmer will still call our Cats/Auburn game.  He's doing both Thursday/Saturday games.

I barely notice who's doing games most of the time. I'm getting kind of tired of musberger in basketball though for some reason.

Gus would beat James Earl Jones at his own game.

I think Brent is sort of like Vitale in that he really likes the storied programs when covering a game. OTOH, I only notice it when KSU is losing soo.......

Yes, this is bad news.  Brent is an American treasure and I actually enjoy Palmer - he is usually well prepared and has a smooth delivery and I am entertained by his doucetastic wardrobe.

People who ask these questions are weirder to me. There are plenty of reasons to criticize entertainment. Especially when it is the only place to watch a certain show or sport.

I love Brent.  His voice is iconic and lends itself to that "big game feel."  I'll really miss him and I especially hate that he's going to do SEC games.  SEC already has the very capable CBS stable of broadcasters. 

Maybe Fowler can reach Brent's status someday.  I think Fowler is a pro.  My dad never liked him though because in Snyder's early days he'd always take pot-shots at Snyder's scheduling, comments (my dad thought) could be attributed to his CU Buffs background.

I love Brents voice. There, I said it.

His voice-over on the main event games gives the entertainment value a little boost.

If Jesse insisted on wearing suits that tight then he should have gone ahead and incorporated a Rose Ceremony into his BCS selection show. Coaches replace the girls, obviously.

I heard a podcast a year or so ago where Fowler said something to the effect of he was wrong about how he previously viewed Snyder.

Love Brent for football. Hate him for basketball. I think it's funny that he tries to put an "urban" touch on Nigel Johnson's name. Nope, Brent. Just Nigel.

I remember, maybe it was 1998?, Brent took a shot at KSU and the scheduling. Said that La Tech was gonna come in and stomp our ass. We won the game 56-14 or so. I've gotten over it, but hated Brent for a while for saying that.

Hell yes to this.  Think Gus's color guy is Charlie Davis.  By far the best broadcast team.  Vern and Danielson second.  Mushburger tries to be Keith Jackson, but he not.  Did get an open container in Lincoln once though, which was pretty cool.
