Johnson/Klatt on the call
Per MGoBlue game notes. I thought word was that it would like be a Tim Brando call, and that Josh Martellus would have a really big day, but it looks like we have been promoted to the "primetime crew" after Staee got their head out of their ass last Saturday. This is my favorite broadcast team going right now and happy they will be on the call (even if the game will likely take 5 hours to play).

wasn't he calling him "Hinton" or soemthing like that too? must have forgot his copy of the depth chart.

And Dalvin Bush as well. I think Rah-Shan Gary even puts in the occasional appearance.

I'm not really a Gus Johnson fan because of his "intense play calling" on normal plays but it does seem like he has toned it down during the last few broadcasts I've seen with him.

Gus Johnson is so annoying with his excitable calls on any little thing, like a 30 yard FG, PAT, 2 yard run on a jet sweep. always makes me cringe and think there is a flag or late hit or something.

In all fairness, there usually is.

My favorite team as well. Klatt has a fantastic eye for the subtleties of the play.

I would say the best PBP guy right now in College Football is McDonough. When he was paired with Speilman it was a great team. Nessler is pretty good, but I really can't stand Danielson.
I've always been a Johnson fan when he rose to prominence in the NCAA Tournament with his excitement. He's a local guy and a Michigan fan at heart.
Klatt right now I think is the best color guy in the business (strong argument for Blackledge too). When Klatt went in on that ridiculous holding call on Higdon, he gained all the respect in my book. "What in the world?" "That is a penalty from Mars"

I loved Gus Johnson with his "puuuure" calls BITD. That was cool, man.
October 16th, 2018 at 10:45 AM ^
Is it safe to assume this will be a 12:30ish kickoff?
October 16th, 2018 at 10:52 AM ^
Noon kick.
October 16th, 2018 at 11:01 AM ^
They may go back to the studio one time before the kick, but it certainly won't be 12:30.
October 16th, 2018 at 11:22 AM ^
It may not start right at 12:00 but I'd highly doubt it'll be anything later than 12:15.
October 16th, 2018 at 12:17 PM ^
What was it last week? 7:42 or 7:52 or something like that.
October 16th, 2018 at 11:20 AM ^
Excellent news. Love them both. Klatt is one of the best personalities in the business. Not just college football.
October 16th, 2018 at 11:44 AM ^
I like Klatt, but Johnson is terrible. HE YELLS FOR EVERY ONE YARD GAIN.
October 16th, 2018 at 1:23 PM ^
WITH THE RUNNER!!!!!
October 16th, 2018 at 1:44 PM ^
Speaking of Metellus, on that int, he almost blew the play . Hope coaches let him know... The MLB sure did

HURT MAH FEELINS
Love Gus, and can't wait to hear 'em again.
