John Wards Last Game

[ptcarter]

John Ward's last call was 1998 and a National Championship. Can Kessling go out this way? We should all hope so.

Note: This thread is NOT the place to bash Kessling, so start another if you want that. I'll admit I have zero problems with Kessling except he's not John Ward.

There will never be another John Ward. Just like I said in the LV forum, KC is not Pat 2.0 because there will never be another Pat Summit.

We should all be happy at the prospect of a worthy successor. The class she assembled BEFORE this furious start was amazing. Heck of a start.

Well I for one will allow this very thing to happen.

Kesling actually told this to Heupel.

Kessling never had a chance, he was TN rebound. The next announcer will be praised bc he’s the guy after the one who replaced a legend.

Kessling fan or not….. he’s a VFL. He deserves some respect and appreciation

Kessling owes a big thanks to Gary Danlieson for a bigger audience. Who'd you rather listen call the game?

That would be so cool! I approve this scenario! And Bob could steal John Ward's "The National Champions are clad in Big Orange!"

When John Ward was announcing the Vols, most everyone turned the TV sound down and listened to The Magic!

I was thinking about our bracket. If we make it to the finals, there is chance we would have to wear the storm troopers for each game. Maybe that last game would be a coin toss on home/away and jersey color. Let's not put the cart before the horse though... much work to be done.

As did I. But I don't do that to hear Bob Kessling. Plus, back then we didn't have the tech to stream games in the palm of our hands.

 

[Stacmot]

Has there been any word on who will replace Kessling?

 

[onevol74]

I would love for this to happen but with the discipline displayed by this team in the last part of the season I call this unlikely.

We were lucky as "heck" and didn't know it. But we did know it. Listening to John Ward was as good as watching the game on TV. John knew how to tell it.

Sometimes that’s the only option you have if driving or working.

We may be going back to it soon. Wait till you start paying extra for CFB. It’s coming. Just wait.

If you’re working, driving somewhere, on the lake and want to know what’s happening you tune in on radio
