I admit I don't have any recollection of Brandon from when I was on campus. I'm guessiong he was a few years behind me since I finished up my COMS classwork in the Fall of '89. He's OK, I just didn't know the correlation. And for the record, I agree with the others that Ray is MUCH stronger calling the game as opposed to providing color. And that's not a knock on him ... that's just stating his strengths at PxP.

As far Scar, you've come a long way from those early broadcasts. You are certainly better than those guys KK seems to be so fond of doing the Big South telecasts. Enough with glossing Scar ... we certainly don't want that dome of his getting any bigger.

i would take SCAR over any of the guys who do CAA games as they are horrible as are the big south guys. i guess i may be biased since SCAR is my boy, but his broadcasts are very good, he mixes in one liners when needed, and is just very insightful. it is just a matter of time till he gets his big break!

Concerning the Big South broadcasts, Matt Hogue does a good job at play by play. I do wish the conference would give Scar an opportunity as an analyst. Scar and Hogue would be a good combo.

Genie Stennett did it back in 98.

From what I hear, that's not all.

This thread has been officially hijacked into a TV/Radio topic. I want to add my 2 cents. Samfan, thanks for the feedback and to all of you for that matter. Positive or negative as long as it is constructive and not personal I don't mind at all. Contrary to some opinions on this board about me I really don't have much of an ego :-). Samfan, as a member of Flames Television I am allowed to in fact encouraged to see the game from a "we" perspective rather than a even perspective. If I were doing a game on ESPN or Comcast then I would be neutral for sure. ( And my name is spelled Scarborough) :-). As far as Big South, they have yet to hire a color commentator who even knows the players in the Big South. That is one of my strengths but so far KK has yet to tap me for the position. Again I don't like to talk about fellow commentators so I will reserve comment on the quality of the Big South telecasts. I do think Matt Hoage does a great job as PBP and would love to work with him...As for the ladies telecasts, I think the best combo would be Jones/Scarborough or Hall/Scarborough. I think you really should have a former player or coach in the color position (which I am both as Sly can attest to as he has heard my resume over and over again on this board). Medic, Sly, Smooth, V88 I appreciate the support even though you guys are all friends of mine I think you would give me your honest opinion if you thought I stunk. Thanks for the support and I hope you guys tune in tonight. Haven't forgot about shout outs either, just need to work them in at the right time. Go Flames!
