frick bama and AU is of course still bamas Daddy.

That said, I have been really impressed with him on the SEC Network. I didn't like the idea of him being a primary host there, but from Day 1 I've felt like he has done a good job, been unbiased and given good commentary.

Did I mention AU is bamas Daddy?

He is far and away the best analyst they have on the network. He'll be on Gameday before too long. People shite on Booger McFarland a lot but he's not too bad. With the exception of the Arkansas game, he predicted Ole Miss' season correctly last year. Said we would beat Alabama, lose to LSU and Auburn. Had us going 10-2 in the regular season.

He is well spoken and intelligent. Can't say that for a lot of on air personalities.

I really wanted to be critical of him and of course had a bias against him going in.

But, credit where credit is due. He is one of the best college football analysts on any network imo.

Its funny at times when he pulls Finebaum away from the bama hype.

Paul trying to hate on Auburn and GMac tells him basically to STFU

Greg is surprisingly good on air. He's got to get away from hot takes and flashy picks but otherwise he is solid.

He has Alabama winning the West with Texas A&M as his dark horse. Seems like a pretty intelligent guy to me.

He's fantastic and could be on any network IMO. Very bright young man.

His voice is obnoxious. He very obviously tries too hard to sound like some important TV anchor

Just picked Bama, Auburn, Georgia, and Arkansas as the only teams with a shot at the playoff...

I expect this thread to take a turn

I really thought he was going to be a total stiff. Instead, he's insightful without trying to be cool with a load of jargon. I don't always agree with him, but it's an opinion. He at least has good points on why he has that opinion.

Today's show was like watching 4 hard dicks trying to impress the new girl. They all giggled at stupid jokes, like a bunch of middle schoolers.
