Charles is a Color Commentator. Mike Keith is a Play by Play Announcer. Not even related, other than both are considered Sports Broadcasters.

Charles Davis could seamlessly move from the analyst to play by play role and be an immediate upgrade from the majority of those currently serving as play by play guys. To say “not even related “ is painting with a broad brush.

Wikipedia says Mike Keith born in Franklin Tenn, 9-11-1967. David was born in Knoxville. Chatt Times says Mike was born In Knoxville & Raised in Franklin. How can they get it wrong (somebody)

I’m pretty sure Mike grew up in Chattanooga before moving to Franklin around middle school. Maybe born in Franklin, moved to Chattanooga then moved back?

But I’ve also been wrong before.

Edit: screenshot from wiki backs me up.

Bob is almost done(is done with football ) and people still can't resist taking shots at the man. Almost seems personal. No idea what he's done to some of these people. It's fine if people don't like the job he's done( I think he's done ok but clearly not as good as Ward or Keith) but I don't get the rampant dislike for him.

He had the misfortune of following a legend.

Yeah,I know because his critics show up in any thread letting us know. However, Im not talking about not talking about how he does the job, Im talking about people taking unnecessary swipes like calling him “Blob” or working a diss into anything. He’s leaving, so I don’t see the need to keep griping about him.

Yeah I mean I get being ready to move on from Bob, but the fact that multiple people through the years bash him as a Buckeye is strange. It’s always people his age who neither attended, nor played at UT too, unlike Bob who ran through the T, got a degree, and worked for the university for decades.

People seem to dislike him and I don’t get it. It’s fine if you don’t like his calls, but some people can’t get over it.

It's an anonymous message board, some people use that to be an *******. Bob was good, not great. I was never one to bash him. I love Mike Keith, I think he can be great. I'm sure there will be some people that can't stand him. Like they say, you can't please everyone.

There isn't a VFL out there that this forum can't throw under the bus. It's what some people do.

Some people like chocolate. Some butter pecan. It’s OK to have different tastes and opinions. I like different takes. I’m not a big Kieth fan but I’ll learn to like him. I just hope he’ll leave saaaaaaack in Nashville.
