Orange and White Game Announcer?

[govols105]

Whoever the guy was that introduced butch jones he kept saying nayland, he was horrible i hope they don't use him at real games for anything. i told my uncle he sounded like butch's female dog. except i used a 5 letter word that means that. surely they won't do that when we run out of the T. oh my talk about making people mad.

I can't stand when people say Nayland. Especially Tennesseans

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Maybe his tongue was swollen due to a drug reaction & he just said it wrong?

 

[rallen]

Didn't the guy that done it for so many years retire or died?

Bobby Denton?

 

[pualsline]

My bad guys I will say Neyland next time

 

[rallen]

Bobby Denton?

Yeah that's him. Thanks.

 

[govols105]

it wasn't bobby denton. it sounded like some young guy trying to sell you a car.

The announcer was Jeff Jarnigan, the PA announcer for Thompson Boling. Bobby Denton hasn't announced the Orange and White game in years.

 

[rallen]

Thanks.

Or maybe it was numb from burning it on a hot pocket?

 

[volboy81]

I couldn't understand anything he was saying...and that "music" ....oh pleeeeeeease

 

[Volman09]

I really like Jarnigan, but mispronouncing Neyland is a crime that should be punishable by law.

:matrix: That happened to you also huh?

No, he didn't mispronounce it. He was on the P.A. The guy that mispronounced it was the guy who was a D.J. Two different people

Okay. That makes sense then. I wouldn't think a guy that is actually employed by the UT could make that mistake.

Can he replace kesling?

Nayland all day baby

This is true. It was the DJ guy. I thought Jeff Jarnigan did a great job on the PA. I think he was the band announcer before Bill Williams took over.

I thought there wasn't a proper way to say Neyland? It was either Neyland or Nayland (even though Nayland sounds dumb) because there isn't an actual recording of how the General said his name.
