Keith Jackson article
Fun little article in LA Times about Keith Jackson. There is a photo of him holding photo of UM marching band tribute to him in his last season, and a good quote about Bo.

Thanks for the link. When you hear how many awful broadcasters we have today, Keith is just missed more and more.

Keith Jackson always let the game be the story and that was it. Simply the best.

Keith Jackson was to college football what Ernie Harwell was to baseball.

That was a great read, and thanks for sharing it!
"In the meantime, the Rose Bowl game is marking its centennial this year. Let's hope its organizers, and Jackson's old employers at ABC/ESPN, make the most of him on this anniversary. After all, he's getting around pretty well these days."
Even if it were just for a brief moment during a short interview, it would be pretty cool to see Keith Jackson at the Rose Bowl one final time. I grew up on his broadcasts like many here and miss them greatly. Truly one of the best.

Not sure if this was mentioned or not, but Keith Jackson narrated part of the Tom Harmon video before the game this past Saturday.

The best ever. By a mile. Oh, what I wouldn't give to hear Keith call one more Michigan/OSU game from the Big House.

Loved Keith. Football announcing isn't the same....
