    NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

    Clyde's bad, Bull's corny, but Calvin was just flat out horrible.

    This!

    He's not the only one who thinks it. I have no idea why Calvin Murphy gets the respect he does from people. The only good thing about Calvin is his pimp wardrobe. Everything else is trash!

    Great to hear - he was screwed over as bad as I've ever seen. I loved listening to him back in the day.

    Don't care about announcing, but I do know that he is a pretty good in helping young talent like Josh Smith succeed, I'm sure he could do a lot with Brooks and maybe even Taylor.

    Van Chancellor! He was awesome, never understood why he was fired as a head coach. The talent we had was obviously not of the championship years.

    I wonder if he still coach's LSU womens bball.

    Maybe he'll do radio on 610? Craig Ackerman has been going solo since Adam Wexler left, hasn't he?
