Don't get all the Bob hate. Sure, he's no John Ward, but then, who is? I'd rather hear Bob and Tim than all of those bozos that CBS, ESPN and SEC put on. And if he calls a player Betty Schnell, or Tua Tanga-viola, well, that's just Bob doing Bob.

I think Kesling struggles with the play-by-play. It's much more difficult to do on the radio, as you have to paint a picture as a play evolves, while constantly updating the game situation (yard line, down, yards for a first down, etc.). Kesling just doesn't do this very well (especially for those of us spoiled by Ward), and it can be frustrating if you're not watching the game simultaneously. You're left wondering what the hell happened, sometimes 20-30 seconds after the play ended.

I like Bob on the Kickoff Call-In Show, Vol Calls, etc. It seems more his element. And it helps having Tim Priest in the booth to break down the play afterward, and inject occasional emotional outbursts. But Kesling's play-by-play, at least in football, can be confusing.

Kesling is awful. Had to listen for a half earlier this year. Basically had no idea what was going on.

Chandler takes the handoff....steps his way to a ten yard gain. 🤨🤨🤨

He is horrid...his acting in "Creed" was absolute garbage.

Who actually watched Creed looking for good acting?

I agree to an extent though, he's just not very convincing to me. I just see him in movies and I'm like "Oh, there's his angry face." "Oh, there's his solemn face." "Oh, there's his figuring-it-all-out face."

“Been on the road today with @Austin_Price. We have some stuff coming out soon that y'all should enjoy. Saw the Jordan Davis commitment. We're trying to get ahold of him. Davis committing to Tennessee is not a surprise at all, as he and his mom were close with Jeremy Pruitt. The timing did catch me off guard since he just recently decommitted from Alabama and is a 2020 guy.”

People seriously underestimate how hard play by play is. Kesling is fine and his voice is synonymous with Tennessee football.

Truth.

I hate Gary Danielson as much as anyone, but the reason he's employed is because he diagnoses the X's and O's so dang quickly. It's just oozing in naggy mother-in-law tones if it's not hardcore sucking up to Bama.
