Gary Danielson has an extremely annoying habit

[norrislakevol]

Nessler is Ron Franklin level good.

Hard to beat Ron, but Nessler, Fowler, and McDonough are all very good at what they do. One that I have always liked even though he generally calls lower level games is Dave Neal. He is very professional and fair. I was glad ESPN hired him after They got the rights to just about all SEC games.

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

The whole breathing thing.

Waking up any giving day?

If Gary could just move to women's lacrosse that would be great.

 

[volfan2024]

Definitely Nick Saban kin

 

[midnight orange]

Nessler isnt near the Bama homer that Danielson is. Its pretty obvious Danielson hangs on Sabans nutz

I think Nessler is an UGA graduate.

I think Nessler is an UGA graduate.

No he’s from Minnesota and graduated from a small school in Minnesota.

 

[Herd Vol]

I wish we could take Nessler to ABC when we leave CBS. I’ll settle for Sean McDonough, though. Both are great. I also wish the SEC could buy the CBS college football theme song.

 

[Mccage]

He actually believes that people are more interested in him than watching the game.

 

[Stacmot]

The only person I really have a problem with is big Bob. I have gotten to where I can’t hardly listen to him. I don’t remember him being like this til the past few years. Sounds totally not interested! Pat isn’t much better. You bet your ass Tim Priest would have lost his marbles on that call against the little red elephants!

 

[CountryBoyBob454]

I may have missed it, but last Saturday’s game may have been the first CBS game I watched where the Tebow name was not mentioned. I really liked that.

 

[ftsandersvol]

Yeah, talking.

 

[rocketskates]

Gary used to work Tebow into anything that he could. Once that went to the wayside, he became obsessed with Bama.

 

[Ned Ray McWorkher]

Oh look, yet another Gary Danielson appreciation thread... This is the best one yet...

 

[VOLifornia]

If Gary could just move to women's lacrosse that would be great.

He’d still find a way to weave Alibubba and Little Nicky into the broadcast.

 

[MtnManStan]

Gary always pisses me off when TN makes a good play and it’s not that UT makes/earned a good play, it’s always that the other team gave it to them.

 

[Jeff Clark]

He’d still find a way to weave Alibubba and Little Nicky into the broadcast.

He would say Tim Tebow would have been a good Lacross player

 

[Specs]

Nothing Danielson loves more than the sound of his own voice. And when Verne was there to egg him on and provide a chortle it was literally unwatchable. Those two were the worst commentators in all of sports.

Watching the replay of the Bama game and on several of our scoring plays, he's talking about something unrelated to the action at hand as the play unfolds. He did it on two of Hyatt's receiving touchdowns, prattling on about his convo yesterday with Nick Saban or something equally irrelevant, deflating the unfolding drama. He needs to shut his yap and let Nessler handle things once the ball is snapped.

Nessler, by the way, provided a gem in describing McGrath's game-winning field goal saying "It wasn't pretty ... but it was beautiful ..." Well played, Brad.

We score so quick there is no room for chit chat. It will happen again.

 

[1Big_Orange_Fan]

He’s the college version of Chris Collinsworth, lots of hyperbole.

Collinsworth is awesome. I don’t see how you can compare the two. Not at all in my book.

Interesting that you say that. I've noticed that several times in a game the announcers have something they want to say (or show on replay) but before they can get started, we are running the next play. I think it frustrates them sometimes. Watch and see if you see it or if I'm just imagining it.

Danielson is a Georgia and Florida cheerleader as well

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

Gary's biggest annoying habit is speaking during broadcasts!

 

[Lilcarl731]

Hey if Nessler is Georgia I have to say hats off he does a pro job of hiding.
Danielson on the other hand is just like my father in law. Am insufferable first class SOB.
his Midwest accent (which I usually have no prob with btw) is distracting and strong especially on words like ye-aahrd
