Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Jackcrevol]

Mike Keith would be a very long shot right? Is that realistic or does he own land in East TN or have a wife that graduated from UT? Anyone seen him in town at Calhoun's or even Applebee's recently?

Seriously though

she was a cheerleader I believe.

He's now busy doing multiple sports with football, boxing, and WWE. My point was that many of the good ones have done radio at some point, especially before we had so many channels. I see Tessitore has done at least another big NY6 bowl on radio in the last 10-12 years (Edit: He did the 2022 Chick Fil A Bowl with Greg McElroy on radio and also the 2020 Rose Bowl with Andre Ware). But guys like Sean McDonough, Mike Tirico, and Brad Nessler have also done big games on radio in the past.

There are some good dual medium guys for sure, but radio is a totally different animal from TV, so I'd prefer someone who's spent their career doing it well instead of someone who's dabbled in it as a side gig for major games where ESPN wants to tout big names for a broadcast in order to draw viewers (or listeners rather).

John Wilkerson deserves the job...if he wants it.

Eh. Nobody deserves it. Find the best possible play by play person out there. If that's Wilkerson, great, but I'd like to see us cast a wider net to make sure we get the best. Going with the local guy instead of finding the best available is what got us stuck with Kesling in the first place.

Well Dick West strikes again !!!

It’s so wild when he tweets to believe it or not. But he nailed this one.

 

[Brillovol]

Also leads the league in aggressive sideline stopping techniques.

Some of the greatest play by play radio announcers done well in broadcasting games on T.V.

We need to go ahead and wrap up that title this year.

 

[Govolsman98]

We need to go ahead and wrap up that title this year.

Will it all be in a row? Dates aren't set for those games yet

 

[knoxvol52]

I think DW will find an up and coming guy. He’s good at that.

I actually have no idea if DW makes the hire?

Mark Daniels, radio guy at UCF.

 

[DD4ME]

To go from Kessling to Tessitore will be a culture shock.

 

[peaygolf]

Mike Keith ain’t leaving the Titans.
It’s not going to happen…….

This will be like the “Grumors”

Nico, year 2...Layup.

If it is an up and comer with ties and experience then you steal Neal Price from Miss St. Kessling literally named him in his press conference as studying under him. The last name he mentioned. Lol.

Maybe 1 bye in there i would think

 

[DD4ME]

Opening your first 4 SEC games on the road with the first one at Bama reminds me of those ******* 2000's schedules where we'd open with Uf and essentially put our season on life alert out the gate.

I am not scared. I just kind of enjoyed finally having a decent damn schedule for once.

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

Yeah, no way Bama will be SEC opener. That’s not the actual order.

Yeah, people are scanning instead of reading.

 

[csprig9]

That’s not the current schedule order
That’s just who and where we play

Doesn’t have to have ties. That’s Lady Vol bball type thinking. Just has to bring the noise and the people will quickly jump on board

I hope you are right. Lol

If by noise you mean Tessitore then I’ll gladly take a Louisville Slugger to all my radios. He’s gotta have a top 5 obnoxious voice.
