if and when he chooses or needs to make this a commercial talent. Wow, that is an incredible impersonation. 

He and Pipkens could go on the road.

I'm glad I saw this one. I never got to see the Pipkens impression which I heard was also excellent.

Nice one Mr. Mealer.

Well Count: +1

He even got the cadence right. Well uhh ya know...I can tell ya, Elliott Mealer is everything you want in a Brady Hoke impression, uhh sounds just like him, uhh uses "well, ya know" perfectly, uh most of all uhh executes the rhythm. You sir have earned yourself the coveted Hoke double point award.

That's amazing. I just watched that about a dozen times, with actual Hoke press conference video in between. Hoke's voice gets a little higher when he's answering questions. Pretty damn spot on.

I think it was on ESPN, they superimposed the player's lips over a still image of Lou, a la Clutch Cargo.  It was fantastic.  Can't find the video, a guy put out a plea for it two years ago.  Mealer's clip lacks the visual (tough to picture Hoke with a beard) but the audio is top shelf.  He was working with Instagram, so he had to speak a little faster than Hoke would in order to finish his sentence.  Word choice was very good.
