cipsucks Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 I'm sure many others on this board can say the same, I've been listening to Kent call Husker basketball since the very beginning. He's a treasure! BTW, I listened to his entire call yesterday. I was in the kitchen frying chicken and mrs. cip was in the living room watching the game. It works out pretty well. Since satellite is about 30 seconds delayed from radio, whenever there is a great play, I can run in and watch it on TV.

Norm Peterson Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 I've said this before and I'll say it again: Kent P draws images with his words that allowed me to visualize the action back when away games weren't on TV. (Even when they are, I'd rather listen to a synced radio broadcast than bland TV PBP guys.) And then the Pinnacle Sports Network screwed the fans and screwed Kent and decided we needed an announcer who wasn't a fan of the program to call the games. Like WTF? Give me a fan of the program! I want the guy whose voice tells me he loves the program as much as I do. Who says things like "BANGARAAAAANG!!!!" and "I LOVE YOU SHAVON!!!" I am glad Kent is our guy. And he's just a good dude, too. So ... Yes, thank you, Kent! Bugeaters1, arliepro, Cazzie22 and 3 others 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since satellite is about 30 seconds delayed from radio, whenever there is a great play, I can run in and watch it on TV. I always listen to Kent. I remeber when the Huskers beat Mizzou when they were #1. He didn't know if the team and him were going to make it out of the gym alive.

Listened to Kevin Harlan and Wayne Larrivee do sports reports on 810 KCMO on my drives to school back in early 80's. Then a commercial or 2 and an episode of Chickenman.

hal9000 Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 During the Boston College call, Kent said his Apple Watch just went off, asking him if he fell down again. He said it does that every time he stands up and sits down, as he does when he calls the games. Chuck Taylor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornfed24-7 Posted October 30 Report Share Posted October 30 "How do you describe the old timer fans of Nebraska basketball?" Masochists. Kent should have answered masochists. Handy Johnson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
