Fred Cook was the man.

He was great. His daughter was beautiful.

Cook---yes he was

Whoever replaced Chuck Robert's at the LB is the worst football PA guy I have ever heard.

It's beyond ridiculous, it's more like being at a monster truck rally.

Yes. One would think that the lackluster fan response to the "FOR?" question after three point shots would have been a clue that it isn't working.

Lordy, I really hate when he does that.

He actually says that each time? I thought it was something pre-recorded, like big brother on Big Brother calling someone to the diary room. But then again, I'm just hearing it through the TV.

He is irritating… his call on three point shots drive me nuts.

Not as bad as when Howard Costello would do baseball.

Lou's brother?

Elvis brother

Lol, in 2018 they got a new guy... During the team intro, he would say "here comes the University of Memphis football team" and I cringe at the fact he would say football team. The same guy that does basketball games inside the FedEx Forum, does the football games at the Liberty Bowl. I wouldn't be mad if there's a new guy as well. When we played Houston, he said someone's name (forgot the player) and said for a total of 7 seconds. He dragged it out because Houston called a timeout.

I don't think he ever did those games sober.

It seems to be a 90's Bulls inspired voice. I agree we could do better and make it more Memphis, but I'm not sure it's worth firing him over.
