Radio play by play

[Baxter48]

Does anyone have information or an idea who will replace Gregg Sharpe?

 

[RedBaloneyPony]

I hope it’s anyone but Matt hold my nose and talk Coatney

 

[ZaneHickey]

No clue, but I would guess the University has been putting feelers out for a few months and have it narrowed down, if not figured out already? Just a guess.

 

[ckriley]

Bring Kent Pavelka back?

 

[Baxter48]

How about Beth Mowins?

Well she is better than Jim rose

 

[TheHuskeRed]

I know he already has multiple contracts covering multiple sports, but is it even remotely possible to get Kevin Kugler?

I would assume he would have to take a pretty hefty paycut but Nebraska is rolling in Big 10 money.

Have you heard Kent on the basketball radio lately? Zero percent chance this happens.

Overpaying for a radio play-by-play guy is probably not in the cards these days.

Just curios, why? Is he losing it?

He's not quite in Lee Corso territory, but he should not be doing football let's just say that.

I like Kent. Sure he makes some mistakes sometimes but love the energy. Football is so much slower than basketball, I think he'd be fine but agree I don't think they would bring him in. Hope he stays in hoops long enough to see our first Tourney win

I love Kent. I grew up listening to football games in the glory years when they did not televise all the games. I do not catch many basketball games on the radio, but every time I do it is clear Kent's age is giving him some issues following the action.

Mike Rowe.

He gets every other narrator job, Deadliest Catch, Wicked Tuna, Airplane Repo, and Bering Sea Gold. It's as if no other voice is worthy.

 

[WHCSC]

Maybe we can get the Washington Generals guy

This is mostly why I said to bring him back. Nostalgia. He’s the voice of my youth. Listening to all the Husker games in the 80s and early 90s on the radio.

Haven’t really heard him on the basketball broadcasts, so, sorry his age has caught up with him.
